Carbene-enabled ether activation through the formation of oxonium: a theoretical view

Ya-Nan Wang et al.

Summary: Theoretical investigation of carbene-enabled ether activation revealed that the final products were dependent on the stability of the oxonium intermediate, achieved through nucleophilic attack of ethers onto carbene species. The nucleophilicity of ethers was found to be crucial for polarization and charge transfer, influencing the chemoselectivity of the reaction. Surprisingly, solvation of ethers did not play a significant role in determining the outcome of the reaction.
