To this mixture, 10 grams of 1-phenyl-2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-4-phosphorinanone (0.04 mole) were added. The two phase system was heated to reflux and 26 mls of a water-ethylene glycol azeotrope were collected over a 20 hour period. The reaction mixture was washed with saturated sodium bicarbonate, water, dried over anhydrous potassium carbonate, the solvent removed in vacuo, and the residue distilled under reduced pressure to give 9.2 grams (78%) of a colorless liquid, bp 134°-140° C. (0.3 mm Hg).
