Reaction Steps

A solution of methyl 4-bromomethyl-2-(4-fluorophenyl)benzoate (12.85 g; 0.04 mol) and triphenyl phosphine (10.53 g; 0.04 mol) in toluene (230 ml) was treated at reflux for 3 hours. The resulting solid was filtered, washed with ether and pentane and dried to give 3-(4-fluorophenyl)-4-methoxycarbonylbenzyltriphenylphosphonium bromide (12.78 g, 78%).
