An Efficient One-Pot Synthesis of Unsymmetrical Ethers: A Directly Reductive Deoxygenation of Esters Using an InBr_3/Et_3SiH Catalytic System

摘要

This study describes a novel one-pot procedure for a directly reductive conversion of the carbonyl function of esters to the corresponding ethers by Et_3SiH in the presence of a catalytic amount of InBr_3.
