Procedure

The starting material may be prepared as follows: 15.0 g of ethyl trimethylsilyl(diethoxymethyl)phosphonite are added dropwise to a stirred solution of 3.9 g of methyl vinyl ketone under an atmosphere of nitrogen at room temperature. The mixture is then heated to 50° C. for a period of 1 hour. The mixture is then allowed to cool to room temperature, 25 ml of chloroform is then added followed by 10 ml water and this mixture is vigorously stirred for a period of 0.5 h. The organic layer is then separated, dried over magnesium sulphate and concentrated under reduced pressure and the crude product distilled under reduced pressure to give ethyl 3-oxobutyl(diethoxymethyl)phosphinate, b.p. 130°-135° C./0.02 mbar, 31P=+45.3 ppm (CDCl3).
