In this study, we developed a method for etherification via aromatic substitution at the ipso-position of an electron-withdrawing group (EWG) that exists at the meta-position of another EWG. To heighten the reactivity of the substitution reaction, we added at-BuOK solution in tetrahydrofuran (THF) to a mixture of an aromatic substrate, an alcoholic nucleophile, and 18-crown-6-ether in dimethylformamide (DMF), which proved to be a particularly effective sequence. Under the conditions we established, aromatic substrates that are difficult to use for substitution reactions such as aryl fluorides activated with either a bromide or a chloride substituent were aptly converted to corresponding ether products at 25 °C. This reaction would potentially be useful to link an alcohol to an additional functional group through further chemical transformations via the use of a residual bromide or chloride substituent.
