Tr ifla te (4d ). The compound 4d was synthesized by a
procedure similar to that described above. Tri-n-butylphos-
phine, instead of triphenylphosphine, was used. From 1 g
(33.3 mmol) of 3a and 0.8 g (40 mmol) of tri-n-butylphosphine
was obtained 1.1 g (72% yield) of a pale yellow oil: 1H NMR

p h or a n e (1b). To a stirred suspension of NaH (50 mg, 1.25
mmol, washed with hexane) in anhydrous THF (2 mL) was
added triphenylphosphonium triflate salt 4a (300 mg, 0.53
mmol) in anhydrous THF (2 mL) at 0 °C under N2. The
resulting mixture was stirred at 0 °C for 0.5 h. The solvent
was then removed at reduced pressure and the residue
extracted with anhydrous CH2Cl2. After concentration of the
extracts, a colorless oil was obtained, which was then tritu-
rated with hexane to yield an off-white solid (180 mg, 83%
yield). An analytical sample was obtained by repetitive
trituration with hexane: mp 73-75 °C; 1H NMR (CDCl3) δ

decribed above was followed for synthesis of 1c. Thus, from
tributylphosphonium triflate salt 4d (100 mg, 0.20 mmol) and
NaH (20 mg, 0.40 mmol, washed with hexane) in anhydrous
THF (2 mL) was obtained 60 mg (85% yield) of crude product,
which was used in the reaction with aldehydes without further

mmol) in anhydrous toluene (5 mL) and DMF (1 mL) was
added [(diethoxyphosphinyl)methyl]triphenylphosphonium
triflate (4a ) or 4d (1.80 mmol) at rt under N2, followed by
addition of triethylamine (7.20 mmol). The resulting mix-
ture was slowly heated to 100 °C (for 4a ) and 70 °C (for 4d ).
The reaction was monitored by TLC analysis. After the
mixture was stirred at that temperature for a period of time
indicated in Table 1, the solvents were removed under reduced
pressure and the residue was chromatographed on a silica gel
