I'm not sure how to go about calculating for percent yield of my product. Do I need to calculate theoretic yield first? I always mix up the formulas.  I was performing the horner wadsworth reaction , synthesis of 3,4-Methylenedioxystilbene. The reaction was between diethyl benzylphophonate and 3,4-dimethylenedioxybenzaldehyde. Aliquat 366 was the catalyst.
