The combination of Nail and KOBu displayed high efficiency for reductive cleavage of C-O bond in diaryl and awl ethers （e.g., dibenzofuran, diphe- nyl ether, anisole） without the hydrogenation of the aryl rings, in the absence of any other catalysts or ligands at 140 ℃, producing corresponding arenes and phenols. It was indicated that the reaction was under a radical mecha- nism.展开更多
