The p-methoxybenzylation of hydroxy and amide groups by p-methoxybenzyl chloride utilizing NaOt-Bu in DMSO is described. p-Methoxybenzylation of sterically hindered menthol using NaOt-Bu in DMSO proceeded faster than the commonly used methods which use NaH in THF or DMF for p-methoxybenzylation of hydroxy and amide groups. The described method was applicable for sterically hindered substrates at room temperature without adding any activating reagents such as tetrabutylammonium iodide.

NaO t -Bu和DMSO在室温下简单快速地对羟基和酰胺基进行对甲氧基苄基化反应

的p被羟基和酰胺基团的-methoxybenzylation p甲氧基苄基氯利用的NaO吨-Bu在DMSO中描述。在DMSO中使用NaO t -Bu对位阻薄荷醇进行对甲氧基苄基化的过程比在THF或DMF中使用NaH对羟基和酰胺基进行对甲氧基苄基化的常用方法进行得更快。所描述的方法适用于室温下受阻的底物，而无需添加任何活化剂，例如四丁基碘化铵。
