A solution of 2,4-dichorophenoxyacetyl chloride (11 mmol) in trichloromethane (15 ml) was added to stirred mixture of 1-hydroxy (furan-2-yl)methylphosphonate (10 mmol) and triethyl amine (11 mmol) in trichloromethane (15 ml) at 273 K. The resultant mixture was stirred at ambient temperature for 3 h, then washed with dilute hydrochloric acid solution, saturated sodium hydrogen carbonate and brine separately, dried and evaporated. The residue was chromatographed on silica with acetone and petroleum ether as
to give the title compound as a white solid.All hydrogen atoms were geometrically positioned [C—H 0.93-0.98 Å], and refined as riding, with Uiso(H) = 1.2-1.5 Ueq(C).
Phosphonate derivatives are particularly important in connection with their remarkable biological activities. They have been widely used as enzyme inhibitors, antibacterial agents, anti-HIV agents, and also used as pesticides. As a continuation of our search for novel herbicides, series of 1-(substituted phenoxyacetoxy)alkylphosphonate derivatives have been designed and synthesized. Some of them have shown good herbicidal activities acting as inhibitors of PDHc (He et al., 2001, 2005; Chen et al., 2006; Peng et al., 2007). The title compound (I) can be used as herbicide to control broadleaf weeds and sedge weeds effectively and showed good selectivity between monocotyledonous crops and dicotyledonous weeds. Here, we report the
of (I).The title compound (Fig. 1), has formed a racemate crystal with monoclinic (P21/c) symmetry. The benzene and furan rings in the molecule are nonplanar, and the dihedral angle between the two rings is 73.54 (1)°.
In the π interaction (C15···Cg1 = 3.690 (3) Å, C15—H15···Cg1=137°, symmetry code: x, y, z, Cg1 is the centroid defined by atoms O4/C10—C13) was also observed in the crystal structure.

Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes. |
Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger. |

Phosphonate derivatives are particularly important in connection with their remarkable biological activities. They have been widely used as enzyme inhibitors, antibacterial agents, anti-HIV agents, and also used as pesticides. As a continuation of our search for novel herbicides, series of 1-(substituted phenoxyacetoxy)alkylphosphonate derivatives have been designed and synthesized. Some of them have shown good herbicidal activities acting as inhibitors of PDHc (He et al., 2001, 2005; Chen et al., 2006; Peng et al., 2007). The title compound (I) can be used as herbicide to control broadleaf weeds and sedge weeds effectively and showed good selectivity between monocotyledonous crops and dicotyledonous weeds. Here, we report the crystal structure of (I).
The title compound (Fig. 1), has formed a racemate crystal with monoclinic (P21/c) symmetry. The benzene and furan rings in the molecule are nonplanar, and the dihedral angle between the two rings is 73.54 (1)°.
In the crystal structure, weak intermolecular C—H···O hydrogen bonds (Table 1) link the molecules into layers parallel to the (100) plane. Weak C—H···π interaction (C15···Cg1 = 3.690 (3) Å, C15—H15···Cg1=137°, symmetry code: x, y, z, Cg1 is the centroid defined by atoms O4/C10—C13) was also observed in the crystal structure.
