On April 13, 2020, Yurino, Taiga; Hachiya, Asuka; Suzuki, Keisuke; Ohkuma, Takeshi published an article.Category: ethers-buliding-blocks The title of the article was Selective Conversion of Benzylic Phosphates into Diarylmethanes Through Al(OTf)3-Catalyzed Friedel-Crafts-Type Benzylation. And the article contained the following:
Al(OTf)3 was identified as a high-performance catalyst for Friedel-Crafts-type benzylation using benzylic phosphates as electrophiles. The reaction proceeded even with 0.2 mol-% of the catalyst. A series of diarylmethanes (21 examples) was obtained in moderate to high yield. The catalyst showed unique chemoselectivity, preferentially converting the benzylic phosphate motif, even with a benzylic acetate group existed in the same mol. The experimental process involved the reaction of 1,4-Dimethoxybenzene(cas: 150-78-7).Category: ethers-buliding-blocks
