Organophosphorus compounds occupy a significant position among the plethora of organic compounds, but a limited number of paramagnetic phosphorus compounds have been reported, including paramagnetic phosphonates. This paper describes the syntheses and further transformations of pyrroline and piperidine nitroxide phosphonates by well-established methods, such as the Pudovik, Arbuzov and Horner-Wadsworth-Emmons (HWE) reactions. The reaction of paramagnetic a-bromoketone produced a vinylphosphonate in the Perkow reaction. Paramagnetic a-hydroxyphosphonates could be subjected to oxidation, elimination and substitution reactions to produce various paramagnetic phosphonates. The synthesized paramagnetic phosphonates proved to be useful synthetic building blocks for carbon-carbon bond-forming reactions in the Horner-Wadsworth-Emmons olefination reactions. The unsaturated compounds achieved could be transformed into various substituted pyrroline nitroxides, proxyl nitroxides and paramagnetic polyaromatics. The Trolox® equivalent antioxidant capacity (TEAC) of new phosphonates was also screened, and tertiary a-hydroxyphosphonatate nitroxides exhibited remarkable antioxidant activity.
