Abstract

In the presence of K2CO3, 2-hydroxyethyltripheny phosphonium bromide (1) reacts with substituted salicylaldehyde (2) and 2-hydroxy-1 naphthaldehyde (4) at 110 °C in a sealed tube. The title compounds were prepared in medium yield. The ratio of bromide (1) to aldehyde derivatives was also discussed in this paper.
