Abstract

The reaction of sodium hydride with ω-hydroxyalkyltriphenylphosphonium salts PhP (CH) OH X (I) has been investigated. The salt (I;= 1, X= I) gave triphenylphosphine and formaldehyde. The salt (I;= 2, X= I) gave triphenylphosphine oxide and ethylene. The salts (I;= 4 or 5, X= I or Cl) could not be prepared. The s
