“…In some cases, subsequent intramolecular Wittig reactions then ensue, or an elimination reaction occurs in which the original phosphine is regenerated, to give the final products. Thus, e.g., new phosphorus ylides have been obtained in excellent yield from the reactions of triphenylphosphine, dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate and strong NH acids, including pyrroles and indoles, 426 hydantoins, 427 benzimidazoles, 428 saccharin, 429 trifluoroacetamide, 430 phthalimide and succinimide. 431,432 New ylides have also been isolated from the related reactions of triphenylphosphine, dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate and primary aromatic amines, 433 including various aminophenols, 434 2-aminothiophenol, 435 and o-phenylenediamine.…”
