Reductive condensations of alcohols with aldehydes/ketones to generate ethers are catalyzed by a readily accessible thiourea organocatalyst that operates in combination with HCl. 1,1,3,3-tetramethyldisiloxane serves as a convenient reducing reagent. This strategy is applicable to challenging substrate combinations and exhibits functional group tolerance. Competing reductive homocoupling of the carbonyl component is suppressed.

Single-electron transmetalation has emerged as an enabling paradigm for the cross-coupling of Csp3 hybridized organotrifluoroborates. Cross-coupling of α-alkoxymethyltrifluoroborates with aryl and heteroaryl bromides has been demonstrated by employing dual catalysis with a combination of an iridium photoredox catalyst and a Ni cross-coupling catalyst. The resulting method enables the alkoxymethylation of diverse (hetero)arenes under mild, room-temperature conditions. (Chemical Equation Presented).

Cross-coupling of mesylated phenol derivatives with various potassium alkoxymethyltrifluoroborates has been achieved. The corresponding aryl and heteroaryl alkoxymethyl compounds have been obtained with equal facility with both electron-rich and electron-poor substituents on the activated alcohol.
Skeletal Rearrangements on Chemical Ionization of Dibenzyl Ether and Derivatives
Kingston, Eric E.,Shannon, James S.,Diakiw, Vladimir,Lacey, Michael J.

Protonated molecular ions of dibenzyl ether, formed by chemical ionization using hydrogen and isobutane as reagent gases, undergo skeletal rearrangements to lose water and formaldehyde, both in the ion source and the flight path.The rearrangements have been elucidated by deuterium labelling and chemical substitution.The water lost contains the reagent proton and an aromatic hydrogen atom, and the aromatic hydrogen atoms have been shown to be mobile prior to the reaction.It is proposed that the skeletal rearrangement for water loss is initiated by protonation on the other oxygen atom, followed by benzyl migration.The formaldehyde loss contains benzylic hydrogen atoms exclusively, and it is proposed that the skeletal rearrangement is preceded by hydrogen rearrangement of an oxygen protonated molecular ion to a ring protonated molecular ion.Daughter ion structures are supported by comparisons of their collision induced dissociation spectra with those of isomeric ions prepared by alternative routes.
