Benzylic alcohols and diarylmethanols with electron-donating substituents in the aromatic ring reacted with aliphatic alcohols in the presence of a catalytic amount of HCl to give the corresponding alkyl arylmethyl ethers. The reactivity of diarylmethanols in the intermolecular dehydration depended on the nature of substituents in the aromatic rings and structure of aliphatic alcohol.
