Under a nitrogen atmosphere, 425.5 g of ethyl 4-cyclohexanecarboxylate and 856.7 g of methoxymethyltriphenylphosphonium chloride were suspended in 2.2 l of methyl tert-butyl ether. A solution of 280.4 g of potassium tert-butoxide in 400 ml of tetrahydrofuran was then added dropwise to the stirred suspension. The suspension was then stirred overnight at RT, and the next day 430 ml of 10% hydrochloric acid were added and the mixture was warmed at 55° C. for 1 hour. 50 ml of water were then added to the suspension. Conventional work-up gave ethyl 4-formylcyclohexanecarboxylate.
