chem lab: Solvent Free Wittig Reaction Lab
Wittig reaction= reaction of a phosphonium ylide with an adehydeor ketone to make a new alkene
A.) Another isomer of the product is formed to a small extent.Draw the structure. Why might we expect this product to be formedin only small amounts?
B.) Give a sequence of reactions showing how the ylide used inthe lab could be synthesized from triphenylphosphine
