Abstract

The phosphonyl radical generated from the reaction of manganese(III) acetate with diethyl phosphonate selectively adds to the 3-position of flavones and coumarins to afford phosphonylated products in moderate to good yields.

Key words

manganese acetate - phosphonylation - flavones - coumarins - dialkyl phosphonate - free radical
