“…23 However, many of these methodologies are associated with one or more disadvantages such as (i) harsh reaction conditions, e.g., treatment with air sensitive agents such as trichloroisocyanuric acid at CH 2 Cl 2 for 4 h, 10 heating at 85 • C in PhMe catalyzed by alumina-supported heteropolyoxometalates, 15 19 (ii) prolonged reaction time; 10,14,16 (iii) requirement for hazardous and carcinogenic organic solvents such as CH 3 CN, 3,9,12,17,19,20,21,23 CH 2 Cl 2 , 7,8,10,11,16,22 PhMe; 15 (iv) use of toxic, costly, or air sensitive catalysts. 3,8,10,13,18,23 Thus, the development of environmentally benign, high-yielding, and clean approaches for the silylation of hydroxyl groups in demand.…”
