Participants

Reaction Steps

This example shows the storage stability of precatalyzed resin containing methyl tricyclohexyl phosphonium iodide catalyst. Tricyclohexyl phosphonium iodide was prepared by reacting tricyclohexylphosphine with iodomethane. 3.95 g of tricyclohexyl phosphine was charged to a 200-ml flask. 70 ml of cyclohexane was added. The resulting solution was maintained with stirring under a nitrogen blanket and condenser. 2 g of iodomethane was added to the solution, resulting in the precipitation of a white solid. The reaction mixture was vacuum filtered and dried in a vacuum oven.
