Applications of the Stereochemically-Controlled Horner-Wittig Reaction: Synthesis of Feniculin, (E)-Non-6-en-1-ol, a Pheromone of the Mediterranean Fruit Fly, (E)- and (Z)-Dec-5-en-1-ol, Tri-substituted Alkenes, and (Z)-α-Bisabolene

Stereoselective reduction of the appropriate α-diphenylphosphinoyl ketone or addition of the lithium derivative of an alkyl diphenylphospine oxide to an aldehyde or a ketone gives Horner-Wittig intermediates and hence the title compounds.

Single isomers (E or Z) of homoallylic and higher alcohols can be synthesised from ω-hydroxyalkyldiphenylphosphine oxides and aldehydes, or from alkyldiphenylphosphine oxides and lactones
Stereochemically Pure E- and Z-Alkenes by the Wittig-Horner Reaction
Buss, Antony D.,Warren, Stuart
, p. 100 - 101 (2007/10/02)
Pure Z-alkenes are obtained stereospecifically from erythro-alcohols (3) formed on addition of Ph2PO-stabilised anions to aldehydes; acylation of the same anions, reduction of the α-Ph2P(O) ketones (5) to the threo-alcohol (6), and elimination gives pure E-alkenes.
