Abstract
One of the most useful applications of phase transfer catalysis in nucleophilic substitution has been in the Williamson ether synthesis. The reaction of an alkoxide anion with an alkyl halide or sulfonate to give either symmetrical or unsymmetrical ethers (depending on reactants) shows significant improvement in convenience, reaction rate, and yield when conducted under phase transfer catalytic conditions.
