  • Title: Benzyl protection of phenols under neutral conditions: palladium-catalyzed benzylations of phenols.
    Author: Kuwano R, Kusano H.
    Journal: Org Lett; 2008 May 15; 10(10):1979-82. PubMed ID: 18402462.
    Abstract:
    Benzyl protection of phenols under neutral conditions was achieved by using a Pd(eta3-C3H5)Cp-DPEphos catalyst. The palladium catalyst efficiently converted aryl benzyl carbonates into benzyl-protected phenols through the decarboxylative etherification. Alternatively, the nucleophilic substitution of benzyl methyl carbonates with phenols proceeded in the presence of the catalyst, yielding aryl benzyl ethers.
