Reaktionsschritte

To a solution of bis(2,2,2-trifluoroethyl)(methoxycarbonylmethyl) phosphonate (1.00 g, 3.14 mmol) and 18-crown-6 (4.14 g, 15.7 mmol) in THF (50 mL) at −78 C, potassium bis(trimethylsilyl)amide (6.3 mL, 0.5 M in toluene, 3.15 mmol) was added dropwise. After the addition was completed, 3-cyanobenzaldehyde (0.412 g, 3.14 mmol) in THF (8 mL) was added. The mixture was stirred at −78 C for 30 min before it was quenched with aq. NH4Cl. Water and ether were added. Aqueous phase was separated, extracted with ether once more. The combined organic solutions were dried over Na2SO4, concentrated in vacuo to give a solid, which was purified by a silica gel column, first eluted with EtOAc/hexane (5/95), then with EtOAc/hexane (10/90) to give the titled compound (0.40 g) (yield: 68%). 1H NMR (CDCl3) 7.85 (s, 1H), 7.77 (d, 1H, J=8 Hz), 7.60 (d, 1H, J=8 Hz), 7.45 (t, 1H, J=8 Hz), 6.91 (d, 1H, J=12 Hz), 6.06 (d, 1H, J=12 Hz).
