Participants

Reaction Steps

35.0 g (0.21 mole) of 3-tert-butyl-5-formyl-5-methylisoxazoline were added dropwise to a solution of 79 g (0.25 mole) of 1-triphenylphosphoranylidene-2-propanone in 200 ml of dichloromethane. The reaction mixture was kept at 40° C. for 8 hours and then stirred with tert-butyl methyl ether. The residue was filtered off under suction and the filtrate was evaporated down to give 43 g of a yellow oil which slowly crystallized.
