Abstract
The hydrolysis of tert-butyldimethylsilyl L-menthyl ether (3) in a CH2Cl2-1 M HCl biphasic solvent system was accelerated by the addition of sodium tetracyanocyclopentadienides 1. Particularly, the reaction rate was enhanced using sodium salt 1a-c with a lipophilic substituent on the cyclopentadienide ring. From the results obtained by a triphasic experiment, hydrolysis proceeds via the formation of hydronium ion 2 in the aqueous phase by ion exchange, followed by the transfer of 2 to the CH2Cl2 phase.
