Zinc (II)-Mediated Selective O-Benzylation of 2-Oxo-1,2-Dihydropyridines Systems

The selective O-benzylation of 2-oxo-1,2-dihydropyridines plays a critical role in organic synthesis of natural products and biological active molecules. Herein we report a novel ternary system of ZnO, ZnCl2 and N,N-diisopropylethylamine (DIEA), that is highly effective for selective O-benzylation o...
