Unusual protons: Brønsted acids sandwiched between sheets of solid acids, such as montmorillonites, activated quinone monoacetals 1 to selectively react with aromatic nucleophiles 2 in an unprecedented substitution reaction. The synthetic utility of the strategy for obtaining highly oxygenated biaryls 3 is highlighted by the synthesis of gilvocarcin aglycones.
