A general and efficient protocol was developed for the synthesis of aryl alkyl ethers through metal-free C–OMe bond cleavage under mild reaction conditions. This process displays a wide scope of methoxyarenes and alcohols, including primary, secondary, and tertiary alcohols, as well as natural products, pharmaceuticals, and biologically active alcohols. DFT calculations and experimental results simultaneously
为在温和的反应条件下通过无金属的C-OMe键裂解合成芳基烷基醚,开发了一种通用而有效的方案。该方法显示出广泛的甲氧基芳烃和醇,包括伯,仲和叔醇,以及天然产物,药物和生物活性醇。DFT计算和实验结果同时证实,钾离子通过与腈的结合在甲氧基的活化中起关键作用,并为S N Ar机制提供了支持。
