(2,6-Dichloro-4-methoxyphenyl)-(2,4-dichlorophenyl)-methyl trichloroacetimidate can be efficiently activated by TMSOTf (10-100 mol%) to react with alcohols and carboxylic acids. Under these conditions a wide variety of alcohols can be transformed into the corresponding ethers in excellent yields with a slight excess of the trichloroacetimidate. The resulting ethers are not susceptible to typical deprotection conditions for benzyl and 4-methoxybenzyl ether groups, however, they can be conveniently deprotected by treatment with 30-50% trifluoroacetic acid in dichloromethane. Polymer-bound (2,6-dichloro-4-alkoxyphenyl)-(2,4-dichlorophenyl)methyl trichloroacetimidate is useful for immobilization of alcohols and carboxylic acids.
