The reaction procedure for this Appel reaction of nerol is easy to follow and I ran on a 10-gram scale. The PPh3 was added in portions but still dissolved really slow. I used hexanes instead of pentane to extract the product from PPh3 and its oxides. I did not run a column and proceeded with the crude from work-up.

Percent yield: 77%
