The alkene shown can be synthesized via a Wittig reaction by combining an appropriate ylide and aldehyde or ketone. Draw one possible combination of ylide and aldehyde or ketone. There are two correct answers. You may draw either resonance structure of the ylide, but make sure you show it with three phenyl groups abbreviated as Ph. Wittig reaction ylide + aldehyde or ketone
