In-situ generation of Et3SiBr from BiBr3 and Et3SiH and its use in preparation of dialkyl ethers
The reported BiBr3-Et3SiH catalyzed reductive etherifications of silyl ethers with carbonyl compounds are shown to be catalyzed by the in situ formed Et3SiBr and verified by an independent use of the commercial reagent. As
