The metal-binding abilities of a wide variety of bioactive aminophosphonates, from the simple aminoethanephosphonic acids to the rather large macrocyclic polyaza derivatives, are discussed with special emphasis on a comparison of the analogous carboxylic acid and phosphonic acid systems. Examples are given of the biological importance of metal ion - aminophosphonate interactions in living syste...

An efficient and eco-friendly green methodology is developed for the synthesis of series α-aminophosphonate derivatives from diverse aldehydes, anilines triethyl phosphite by using environmentally benign cost-effective Eggshells as solid heterogeneous base catalyst. The reaction conducted stepwise one pot condensation through Kabachnick–Fields addition in ethanol at room temperature during 25–3...

A series of ten aminophosphonate derivatives were assayed for their hemolytic activity as a preliminary screening for the detection of herbicides. The data obtained indicate: 1. A clear correlation between the hemolytic capacity of the test compounds and their plant growth inhibition and an increase in membrane fluidity was demonstrated. 2. It was found that the most active compounds revealed a...

A series of new aminoalkane- and aminofluorenephosphonates was synthesized for agrochemical application. The particular compounds had different alkyl substituents at the carbon, nitrogen and phosphorus atoms. Their pesticidal activity was checked by applying various experimental methods. These included the measurements of compounds' potency: to inhibit growth of cucumber and germination of whit...
