Abstract
Abstract While α-lithio ylid 2 my be generated from triphenylphosphonio-bromomethylid through halogen/metal exchange, the reaction of triphenyl phosphonio-methylid 1 with sec- or tert-butyllithium produces nearly quantitatively the o-lithio ylid 3, which is stable at-60 but slowly decomposes at higher temperatures via a cyclization product 5 to give the α-lithio phosphine 4.
