Abstract
Direct conversion of aryl trialkylsilyl ethers and aryl acetates into the corresponding alkyl-protected phenols such as benzyl and allyl ethers can be conveniently performed by the reaction with alkyl halide in the presence of cesium fluoride and sodium methoxide, respectively, in a one-pot procedure.
