Trimethylphosphine is a stronger nucleophile than triphenylphosphine, but it is rarely used to make ylides. Why is trimethylphosphine unsuitable for making most phosphorus ylides?
Propose a mechanism for the hydrolysis of benzaldehyde methyl imine just shown.
Question. The UV spectrum of an unknown compound shows values ofat 225 nm(E = 10,000) and at 318 nm(E = 40). The mass spectrum shows a molecular ion at m/z 96 and a prominent base peak at m/z68. The IR and NMR spectra follow. Propose a structure, and show how your structure corresponds to the observed absorptions. Propose a favorable fragmentation to account for the MS base peak at m/z 68 (loss of C2H4 ).
