After 5 hours, an additional 3 g of the Wittig reagent was added. The mixture was stirred for 10 hours. The solvent was removed under reduced pressure, and the residue was triturated with 500 mL of 5% EtOAc/hexanes. The mixture was filtered, removing a large amount of P(O)Ph3. The residue was taken up in 300 mL of 2.5% EtOAc/hexanes and filtered through a pad of silica. The mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure, and the residue was found to be (E)-4-(4-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)but-3-en-2-one (28.3 g, 92.0% yield). 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) δ ppm 7.68-7.60 (m, 3H), 7.52 (d, J=16.43 Hz, 1H), 6.78 (d, J=16.4 Hz, 1H), 2.41 (s, 3H).
