Procedure

To a solution of 2,6-bis(trifluoromethyl)benzyl bromide (0.400 g, 1.30 mmol) in toluene (5 mL) was added triphenylphosphine (0.375 g, 1.43 mmol). The mixture was heated to reflux for 24 h. After cooling to room temperature, hexanes (10 mL) was added and the mixture was stirred for 1 h. The solid was collected by filtration and rinsed with hexanes to give 2,6-bis(trifluoromethyl)benzyltriphenylphosphonium bromide as a white solid. Yield (0.446 g, 60%): 1H NMR (400 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ 8.02 (d, J=8.0 Hz, 2H), 7.57-7.87 (m, 16H), 5.17 (d, J=15.2 Hz, 2H).
