Synthesis of Tetrabutylammonium Salts
KF (10-20 equiv, see Table [1] ), R3MX (3.0 mmol), tetrabutylammonium hydrogensulphate (3.0 mmol) and solvent (7.5 mL) were placed in flask and heated with stirring at 60 ºC for 24 h. The solid was filtered off and washed with the solvent used in the reaction (4 × 5 mL). The combined filtrates were evaporated and the residue was recrystallized from MeCN-Et2O, compounds 1 and 2 were isolated as oils and not purified.
Synthesis of Potassium Salts KF (10-20 eq; see Table [2] ), R3MX (1.0 mmol) and DMF (2.5 mL) were placed in flask and heated with stirring at 60 ºC for 24 h. The solid was filtered off and washed with DMF (4 × 3 mL). The combined filtrates were evaporated and the residue was recrystallized from DMF-Et2O.
