Practical preparation of diphenylmethyl ethers from 2-diphenylmethoxypyridine using catalytic iron(III) chloride

A novel facile synthetic method for producing diphenylmethyl (DPM) ethers from 2-diphenylmethoxypyridine was developed. A variety of DPM ethers was successfully achieved with high yield via treatment of alcohols with 2-diphenylmethoxypyridine in the presence of catalytic FeCl3. The procedure is a practical and efficient synthetic procedure to protect various alcohols, and it can be applied to prepare bioactive compounds.

W-Ti-O mixed metal oxide catalyzed dehydrative cross-etherification of alcohols

A dehydrative cross-etherification reaction of two different alcohols is achieved in the presence of hydrothermally synthesized tungsten-titanium mixed metal oxide (W-Ti-O) catalyst. The reaction is environmentally benign: organic solvent is not necessary and the catalyst is readily recovered and reusable.

Sulfated tungstate as hydroxyl group activator for preparation of benzyl, including p-methoxybenzyl ethers of alcohols and phenols

Sulfated tungstate was found to be an effective heterogeneous and reusable catalyst for hydroxy group activation–mediated preparation of benzylic ethers including p-methoxybenzylic ethers of a wide range of alcohols and phenols under mild reaction conditions.
