Explanation:
The wittig reaction is an organic reaction in which an aldehyde or a ketone reacts with a phosphonium ylide to give an alkene. This phoshonium ylide that participates in the reaction is usually generated insitu in the system by reaction of an alky or aryl triphenylphosphonium halide salt with a base(sodium hydroxide is mostly used).
In this particular reaction 4-methylbenzaldehyde and benzyltriphenylphosphonium chloride were reacted together in the presence of sodium hydroxide and the product with the structure shown in the answer was obtained as the major isomer produced in the reaction.
