Participants

Reaction Steps

Trimethyl bromosilane (17.3 ml) was added to a stirred solution of tetraethyl (2,4-dichlorophenoxymethylene)-bisphosphonate (5.0 g) in methylene chloride (18 ml). After 3 hours at room temperature, the mixture was evaporated in vacuo, and residual trimethyl bromosilane was removed by repeated evaporation with methylene chloride. The residue was stirred overnight in ethanol and evaporated in vacuo. Crystallization from ether gave the title compound as colourless crystals.
