Abstract

Using a one-pot four-step reaction a readily available phospholide was converted efficiently to a 2-carboxyphosphole. This compound can be used as a building block for the synthesis of phosphole-containing peptides, where the phosphole can serve as a coordination site for late transition metals and may affect the secondary structure of the peptide.
