Mix-and-heat benzylation of alcohols using a bench-stable pyridinium salt. Poon, K. W C & Dudley, G. B The Journal of organic chemistry, 71(10):3923–7, May, 2006.
Mix-and-heat benzylation of alcohols using a bench-stable pyridinium salt. [link]Paper  doi  abstract   bibtex   
2-Benzyloxy-1-methylpyridinium triflate (1) is a stable, neutral organic salt that converts alcohols into benzyl ethers upon warming. The synthesis and reactivity of 1 are described herein. Benzylation of a wide range of alcohols occurs in good to excellent yield.
