Abstract

Environmentally benign simple and practical method has been developed in cationic micellar media for the selective acylations of 1-halo-2-methoxynaphthalenes, 2- methoxynaphthalene, anisole, 2-methoxypyridine, and 2-methoxypyrimidine. Developed protocols afforded good to excellent yields of products in the presence of a catalytic amount of cationic micelles (CTAB and CTAC) under conventional and nonconventional ( ...
