Triethyl phosphite (ca 66.6 ml; 94% pure; ca. 396.8 mmol) and 2-iodobenzyl chloride 1 (100 g, 400 mmol; melted prior to use) were mixed with xylene (65 ml) in a 250 ml roundbottomed flask. The clear solution was heated to reflux while stirring for 24 hours. The reaction was followed by GC and 1H-NMR (CDCl3). The disappearing proton resonance of 2H, s, CH2I at 4.73 ppm and the new 2H, d, CH2PO(OEt)2 at 3.47 ppm were indicative for the progress of the reaction.
