Chloromethyltriphenylphosphonium iodide has been prepared by the reaction of chloroiodomethane with triphenylphosphine. Upon treatment with potassium t-butoxide in t- butyl alcohol, the phosphonium iodide was converted into chloromethylenetriphenylphosphorane; this in turn was used for the Wittig reaction of aldehydes and ketones into the corresponding chloroolefins of the type RCH= CHCl and ...
