✦ Synopsis

Solution and Solid Phase p-Alkoxybenzylation of Alcohols under Neutral Conditions.

-A variety of alcohols (I) can be directly converted to the corresponding p-methoxybenzyl ethers using 4-methoxybenzyl-2-pyridylthiocarbonate (II) under neutral conditions. The method can be adapted to solid-phase synthesis.
