Application

3-Methoxybenzyl chloride was used to alkylate 8-benzyloxy-2(1H)-quinolinone in the presence of DMF and NaH. It was also used in the synthesis of diarylmethanes via in situ organozinc-mediated, palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling between benzyl and aryl halide.

A remarkably simple entry to unsymmetrical diarylmethanes has been developed that relies on an in situ organozinc-mediated, palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling. Thus, by mixing a benzyl and aryl halide together in the presence of Zn metal and a Pd catalyst, diarylmethanes are
