摘要
Tris(pentafluorophenyl)borane [B(C6F5)(3)] has been used as an efficient catalyst for reductive alkylation of alkoxy benzenes using aldehydes as an alkylating agent in the presence of polymethylhydrosiloxane (PMHS). Various alkylated trimethoxybenzene derivatives have been prepared in good to high yields. In addition, B(C6F5)(3) was also used as a catalyst for the reaction of electron-rich arenes with aldehydes to obtain triarylmethanes. The use of reductive alkylation protocol for the synthesis of an isochroman and tetrallydroisoquinoline derivatives has also been demonstrated. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
