Abstract

The reaction of various iodophenols with MeMgCl in presence of LiCl followed by the addition of i-PrMgCl provides the corresponding magnesiated magnesium phenolates as THF soluble reagents; this approach can be extended to heterocyclic compounds bearing a hydroxy group like pyridines and quinolines.
