The stereochemistry of the reactions between tris(2-methoxymethoxypheny)phosphonioethanide (1f), -butanide (2f), and -phenyl-methanide (3f) and a variety of aldehydes was investigated.Ylides having a β-unbranched aliphatic sidechain, such as 2f, and saturated straight-chain aldehydes give olefins with unprecedented cis-selectivity (cis/trans ca. 200:1).
