Abstract

Coupling reactions of a number of aromatic and heteroaromatic phenols with alkyl, acyl or benzoyl halides in acetonitrile with cesium fluoride-Celite are described, demonstrating that this reagent provides an efficient, convenient and practical method for the syntheses of aromatic esters and ethers.
