Triethylamine (Et3N) mediates esterification reactions between the title reagent (1) and carboxylic acids. Alcohols, phenols, amides, and other sensitive functionality are not affected; a dual role for Et3N as a promoter and a scavenger is postulated. Benzyl esters are obtained

2-Benzyloxy-1-methylpyridinium triflate (1) is a stable, neutral organic salt that converts alcohols into benzyl ethers upon warming. The synthesis and reactivity of 1 are described herein. Benzylation of a wide range of alcohols occurs in good to excellent yield.

Articles

Benzyl and p-methoxy benzyl protecting groups require use of acidic or basic reaction media and/or otherwise non-mild reaction conditions, which sometimes are not compatible with other functional groups in the molecule. Dudley Reagents provide protection of alcohols and carboxylic acids under relatively neutral reaction conditions
