P. Barahona et al., Crystal structure and NMR spectra of 3-carboethoxy-3-triphenylphosphoranylidene-2-oxopropane triphenyl phosphonium bromide chloroform solvate, BOL SOC CH, 43(4), 1998, pp. 493-500
The crystal structure of C42H37O3P2Br has been determined by single crystal
X-ray diffraction. The title compound is monoclinic, space group P2(1)/n (
Nr. 14), with unit cell parameters a = 11.220(6), b = 14.345(10), c = 25.61
6(17) Angstrom, beta = 97.21(5)degrees and Z = 4. The compound crystallizes
with solvent molecules of chloroform, and has triphenylphosphonium ylide a
nd triphenyl phosphonium salt moieties linked by the carbon chain of 3-carb
oethoxy-2-oxopropane. The H-1-, C-13- and P-31-NMR spectra are discussed an
d related to the crystal structure.
