摘要

Insertion of aluminum to the C–O–C bond of saturated cyclic ethers by the HgCl 2–ZnCl 2– MeI catalyst system led to the reductive cleavage of 5, 6, and 7 membered ring ethers to give polymeric alkoxyalkylaluminum compounds. The relative rate of the reaction was increased in the order of tetrahydrofuran, 3-methyltetrahydrofuran, 2-methyltetrahydrofuran, 2, 5- dimethyltetrahydrofuran, tetrahydropyran, oxepane, 7-oxabicyclo [2.2. 1]-heptane, and 2- ...
