Procedure
Diethyl phosphite (5.5 g) and trimethylsulfonium iodide (8.2 g) are dissolved in water (80 ml). Propylene oxide (20 ml) is added and the mixture is then heated for 6 hours at 35° C. Concentration of the medium under reduced pressure gives a colorless oil (7.9 g) which crystallizes at ambient temperature. The crude product is dissolved in acetonitrile (25 ml) at ambient temperature. The solution is cooled by means of an acetone ice bath. The precipitated product is filtered off and then dried in a vacuum desiccator.
