Reaction Steps

A solution of 5.0 g (5.8 mmol) of tris(3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-trimethylsilyloxyphenyl)phosphine and 4.0 ml of water in 100 ml of methanol is heated at reflux temperature for 48 hours. The solvent is removed in vacuo from the reaction mixture and the residue is recrystallized from nitromethane. The mass spectrum shows a molecular ion at m/z=646.
