Various phosphorates have been synthesized to study the Horner-Wadsworth-Emmons olefination reaction. The phosphoryl stabilised carbanion resulting from phosphonates, carrying electron withdrawing groups attached to phosphorus atom, has been reacted with a variety of aldehydes at - 78°C leading to Z(cis) selective olefination.
