No noble metal needed: The cobalt-catalysed reductive etherification of aldehydes with alcohols under syngas conditions has been investigated and proved to be efficient for a broad range of coupling partners. The promoting effect of phosphine oxides allows for a milder and more general reaction: the methodology presented a good functional group tolerance and could be applied to natural alcohols.
