, p. 2169 - 2171 (2003)
(Matrix presented) Diaryl ethers have been prepared by direct coupling of phenols including those that bear a strong electron-attracting substituent to electron-deficient aryl halides through SNAr-based addition reactions with assistance of microwave irradiation in high to excellent yields within 5-10 min. No catalysts were required under our conditions.

A conceptually new and synthetically valuable radical Smiles rearrangement reaction is reported under undivided electrolytic conditions. This protocol employs an entirely new strategy for the electrochemical radical Smiles rearrangement. Remarkably, an amidyl radical generated from the cleavage of the N-O bond under reductive electrolytic conditions plays a crucial role in this transformation. Various hydroxylamine derivatives bearing different substituents are suitable in this electrochemical transformation, furnishing the corresponding amides in up to 86% yield.

We have developed a highly efficient aryl migration from an aryl ether to a carboxylic acid group through retro-Smiles rearrangement by visible-light photoredox catalysis at ambient temperature. Transition metals and a stoichiometric oxidant and base are avoided in the transformation. Inspired by the high efficiency of this transformation and the fundamental importance of C?O bond cleavage, we developed a novel approach to the C?O cleavage of a biaryl ether to form two phenolic compounds, as demonstrated by a one-pot, two-step gram-scale reaction under mild conditions. The aryl migration exhibits broad scope and can be applied to the synthesis of pharmaceutical compounds, such as guacetisal. Primary mechanistic studies indicate that the catalytic cycle occurs by a reductive quenching pathway.

A novel palladium-catalyzed protocol for the synthesis of diaryl ethers derivatives has been developed. In the presence of 2,2′-bipyridine- cyclopalladated ferrocenylimine complex (Cat. Ic), diaryl ethers were selectively generated by adjusting reaction parameters through the coupling of arylboronic acids and nitroarenes with yields ranging from poor to good. The efficiency of this reaction was demonstrated by its compatibility with a range of groups. Moreover, the rigorous exclusion of air or moisture was not required in these transformations.
Synthesis of diaryl ethers, diaryl sulfides, heteroaryl ethers and heteroaryl sulfides under microwave dielectric heating

This paper describes the synthesis of diaryl ethers and sulfides by utilizing microwave heating methodology. The methodology is shown to be rapid and efficient for the coupling of phenols or thiophenol with electron-deficient aryl halides through a SNAr reaction. The scope of the protocol can be expanded to six-membered heterocycles bearing a hydroxyl group as well as to the reaction of 2-pyrimidinethiol with mildly activated aryl halides, providing heteroaryl ethers and sulfides, respectively. The advantages of the present method include the wide substrate scope, the obviation of metal catalysts, ease of product isolation, and high purity of products. Georg Thieme Verlag Stuttgart.
