Abstract— The SNHAr reaction of pyridines with bis(polyfluoroalkyl)phosphonates assisted by benzoylphenylacetylene (equimolar reactants ratio, 70–75°С, 3.5–7 h, catalyst- and solvent-free) has led to bis(polyfluoroalkyl)pyridinylphosphonates in yield up to 51%. In the presence of phenylcyanoacetylene, pyridine has reacted with bis(2,2,2-trifluoroethyl)phosphonate at room temperature to regio- and stereoselectively form Z-(cyanophenylethenyl)-1,4-dihydropyridin-4-ylphosphonate, the SNHAr reaction kinetic product, in high yield.

Keywords: pyridines, acetylenes, bis(polyfluoroalkyl)phosphonates, zwitterions, SNHAr reaction
