19.12 Nucleophilic Addition of Phosphorus
Ylides: The Wittig Reaction
The sequence converts C=O is to C=C
A phosphorus ylide adds to an aldehyde or ketone to
yield a dipolar intermediate called a betaine
The intermediate spontaneously decomposes
through a four-membered ring to yield alkene and
triphenylphosphine oxide, (Ph)3P=O
Formation of the ylide is shown below
