Towards ortho-selective electrophilic substitution/addition to phenolates in anhydrous solvents

Alkyl-substituted Li-phenolates with BnBr in water solution lead to a mixture of o- and p-Bn-substituted phenols together with a substantial amount of phenol Bn ether. In CPME, and especially in toluene with 1–2 equivalents of ether or alcohol additives, ortho-selective alkylation is achieved. In the case of o,o,p-tri- and o,o-di-substituted phenols dearomatization occurs affording o-Bn-substituted alkyl cyclohexadienones with yields up to 92% with an o/p ratio up to 90/1.
Tin exchanged heteropoly tungstate: An efficient catalyst for benzylation of arenes with benzyl alcohol

The partial exchange of tin with the protons of 12-tungstophosphoric acid (TPA) results in a highly active heterogeneous catalyst for benzylation of arenes with benzyl alcohol as benzylating agent. The catalysts were characterized by X-ray diffraction, Laser-Raman and FT-IR of pyridine adsorption. The catalytic activity depends significantly on the extent of tin exchanged with the protons of heteropoly tungstate. The characterization results suggest the presence of Lewis acidic sites by the exchange of tin. The catalyst with partial exchange of Sn showed high benzylation activity, which in turn related to variation in acidity of the catalysts. The catalyst is highly active for benzylation reaction irrespective of the nature of substituted arenes and benzyl alcohols. These catalysts are highly active compared to other acid catalysts used for benzylation of different arenes. The catalyst is easy to separate from reaction mixture and exhibit consistent activity upon reuse. The plausible reaction mechanism based on the role of both Lewis and Bronsted acid sites of the catalyst was discussed.
o-(α-Benzotriazolylalkyl)phenols: Versatile Intermediates for the Synthesis of Substituted Phenols

Phenols and naphthols are benzotriazolylmethylated by 1-(hydroxymethyl)-1H-benzotriazole (13) (a formaldehyde derivative) in the o- or (if both o-positions are occupied) in the p-position.The reaction can be extended to other aldehydes in the case of the naphthols.The methylene group in the o-(benzotriazolylmethyl)phenols can be lithiated (but only after trimethylsilyl protection of the hydroxy group) and then substituted by various electrophiles.The benzotriazole residues in both the primary products and in their substituted derivatives can be displaced by the alkylanions of Grignard reagents or by hydride ions allowing the elaboration of many new types of substituted phenols.
