Abstract

Aromatic hydroxy acids have been attached to a polymeric solid support and the phenolic hydroxy groups have been reacted with a variety of primary and secondary alcohols under the conditions of the Mitsunobu reaction (triphenylphosphine and diethyl azodicarboxylate) in tetrahydrofuran. In most cases the reaction provided a nearly quantitative yield of alkyl aryl ethers, as determined after cleaving the product from the resin. To demonstrate that the ...
