%0 Journal Article %J Supramolecular Chemistry %D 2017 %T Facile one-pot synthesis of aliphatic bridged diaryloxy compounds, cyclic and crown ethers under mild conditions %A Sakate, Sachin %A Kamble, Sumit %A Chikate, Rajiv %A Rode, Chandrashekhar %X We report here the facile, room temperature, catalyst free, one pot synthesis of aliphatic bridged diaryloxy compounds, cyclic and crown ethers. Anhydrous potassium carbonate (K2CO3) as a mild base along with dimethyl sulfoxide generates the phenoxide ion which facilitates the nucleophilic substitution of bromoalkanes to yield the corresponding crown ethers. %B Supramolecular Chemistry %V 29 %P 462-470 %8 JAN %G eng %N 6 %3 Foreign %4 1.467 %R 10.1080/10610278.2016.1267858
