Synthesis and Reaction of 1,5,3,7-Diazadiphosphocine-1,5-Dicarboxylic Acids

In order to synthesize new bioactive compounds and contrasting agents, reactions of glycine and glutamic acid as an animo acid with paraformaldehyde and hypophosphorous acid were executed. Products are 3,7-dihydroxy-3,7-dioxoperhydro-1,5,3,7-diazadiphosphocine-1,5-diacetic acid 1 and 3,7-dihydroxy-3,7-dioxoperhydro-1,5,3,7-diazadiphosphocine-1,5-di-(2-glutaric acid) 3. 2-[5-(1,2-Dicarboxyethyl)-3,7-dihydroxy-3,7-dioxo-315.715-[1,5,3,7] diazadiphosphocan-1-yl]-succinic acid 2 by using aspartic acid was not obtained. Esterification of 3,7-dihydroxy-3,7-dioxoperhydro-1,5,3,7-diaza-diphosphocine-1,5-diacetic acid 1 by treatment of methanol, ethanol, and propanol were executed. 3,7-Dihydroxy-3,7-dioxoperhydro-1,5,3,7-diazadiphosphocine-1,5-diacetic acid methyl ester 4, 3.7-dihydroxy-3,7-dioxoperhydro-1,5,3, 7-diazadiphosphocine-1.5-diacetic acid ethyl ester 5, and 3,7-dihydroxy-3,7-dioxoperhydro-1,5,3,7-diazadiphosphocine-1,5-diacetic acid propyl ester 6 were respectively synthesized in good yields. Continuously, we will try synthesis of novel compounds and evaluation of biological activity.
