Facile synthesis, antioxidant and antimicrobial activity of amino methylene bisphosphonates.

A green and efficient preparation method for the amino bisphosphonates is accomplished by simple mixing and stirring of diethylphosphite, triethylorthoformate and various amines in the presence of amberlyst-15 as catalyst at room temperature under solvent free conditions. The title compounds are characterized by IR, (1)H-, (13)C-, (31)P-NMR and mass spectra, also studied their antimicrobial and antioxidant activity.
