The excess triethyl phosphite was removed under reduced pressure, 60 ml of hexanes was added, the mixture was cooled at −78 ° C. and white solid was formed on vigorous stirring. The solid was collected by rapid filtration, washed three times with 20 ml of cool hexanes, dried in vacuo and isolated in 14.0 g (72.7%) yield as light yellow oil.1H NMR (CDCl3, 500 MHz) δppm: 7.51 (s, br, 1H), 7.40 (dd, 3J=7.7 Hz, 4J=2.2 Hz, 1H), 7.21 (d, 3J=8.0 Hz, 1H) 4.04 (m, 8H, CH2), 3.38 (d, J=21.5 Hz, 2H, CH2), 3.09 (d, J=21.5 Hz, 2H, CH2), 1.25 (m, 12H, CH3).
