반응 단계

A solution of 20.2 g (0.18 mole) of potassium tert.-butylate in 45 ml of dimethyl sulfoxide was added dropwise to a solution of 23.2 g (0.09 mole) of diethyl 1-chloro-1-(4-tolyl)-methylphosphonate and 22.1 g (0.09 mole) of 2-formyl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-3-methoxy-5,5,8,8-tetramethylnaphthalene in 270 ml of dry dimethyl sulfoxide at room temperature. The mixture was stirred for 30 minutes, poured onto 1 liter of ice water and extracted three times with ether. The ether phase was washed twice with water, dried over sodium sulfate and evaporated down to give 22.6 g (76%) of a slightly impure product. Recrystallization from methanol gave 15.2 g (51%) of the pure title compound of melting point 127° C.
