This reaction is commonly known as Wittig reaction.
In the first step of the reaction, the nucleophilic attack of the ylide on the carbonyl carbon takes place to form betaine.
In the second step, the formation of the four-membered ring, oxaphosphetane occurs and in the final step, the alkene is formed as a product.
