Procedure

A solution of p-tolylmagnesium bromide [prepared from p-bromotoluene (29.1 g, 0.16 mol) and magnesium (4.38 g, 0.18 g-atom)] in ether (100 mL) was treated with a solution of ethyl phenylphosphonite (13,6 g, 0.08 mol) in ether (50 mL) with vigorous mechanical stirring. The mixture was heated at reflux for 1/2 hr., then 100 mL of 25% sulfuric acid was added cautiously. Three layers formed; the bottom (aqueous) layer was extracted with toluene. Addition of NaHCO3 to the combined upper layers produced a vigorous reaction and a single organic phase. The organic phase was washed with water and with saturated NaCl, dried and evaporated to give an oil (14 g). Kugelrohr distillation at 120°-160° C. (0.1 mmHg) followed by chromatography on silica gel (CHCL3), then 10% MeOH-CHCl3) gave 7.1 g of an oil. This was distilled in the Kugelrohr again (150° C., 0.1 mmHg) to give 6.2 g of product which appears to be pure by NMR and crystallized on standing. 1H NMR (CDCl3) δ8.0-7.2 (m, 9H), 8.08 (d, J=480 Hz, 1H), 2.42 (s, 3H).
