Abstract
A simple iron- and silyl chloride catalyzed method for the preparation of symmetrical and nonsymmetrical ethers is presented. Various aldehydes and ketones were reductively etherified by using triethylsilane as a reducing agent in the presence of 2 mol% of iron(III) oxo acetate and 8 mol% of chloro(trimethyl)silane. The reactions can be carried out at ambient temperatures and pressures with ethyl acetate as the solvent.

- 59 The NMR spectra reported for this compound here is not fully consistent with the incomplete analysis reported (see ref. 8). Because of the presence of persistent traces of ethyl acetate in the isolated sample, elemental analysis was not suitable for verification of the identity of the product or its elemental composition. In ESI-HRMS, strong chelation effects were observed, further hampering analysis of the product by an independent method. The identity of the free phenolic product was eventually verified by trimethylsilyl derivatization for GC analysis.
