Abstract

AbstractEthers can easily be cleaved with various electron‐transfer reagents. New data concerning the chemical methods of the regioselective opening of the ether bond with alkali metals (M0), alkali metal aromatic radical anions (Ar·−, M+), alkalides (M−, M+C; C denotes a ligand) and low‐valent transition‐metal compounds are presented.
