Peroxovanadium-catalyzed oxidative esterification of aldehydes.

The peroxovanadium species generated from V(2)O(5) and hydrogen peroxide, which is liberated from peroxy salts such as sodium perborate (SPB) or sodium percarbonate (SPC), transform aldehydes directly into esters in an alcoholic medium. Monoesters of diols have been achieved directly in one pot from aldehydes. High catalytic turnover number combined with inexpensive, easily available reagents and innocuous side products from the reaction make it a suitable alternative for the synthesis of esters from aldehydes.

Carboxylation and esterification of functionalized arylcopper reagents.

Functionalized arylcopper reagents have been produced in good yields at 25 degrees C from activated copper and the corresponding functionalized aryl iodides without the need of traditional organolithium or Grignard precursors. These organocopper compounds will undergo carboxylation with CO(2) to form the corresponding copper benzoates. In turn, these salts can be acidified to produce the functionalized aryl acids or treated with appropriate alkyl halides in the presence of a dipolar aprotic solvent to generate the corresponding aryl esters. This methodology permits the formation of functionalized organic acids and esters that could not be generated by the carboxylation of organomagnesium compounds.

Direct atom-efficient esterification between carboxylic acids and alcohols catalyzed by amphoteric, water-tolerant TiO(acac)2.

A diverse array of oxometallic species were examined as catalysts for a test direct condensation of benzoic acid and 2-phenylethanol in 1:1 stoichiometry. Besides group IVB MOCl2-xH2O and TiOX2-xH2O, group VB VOCl2-xTHF and group IVB TiO(acac)2 were found to be the most efficient and water-tolerant catalysts for the test reaction. The new neutral catalytic protocol with the optimal TiO(acac)2 tolerates many stereo/electronic structural variations in both (di)acid (1 degree -3 degrees alkyl and aryl) and (di)alcohol (1 degree, 2 degrees alkyl, and aryl) components with high chemoselectivity.

Application of lipase-catalyzed regioselective esterification in the preparation of digitonin derivatives.

The oligosaccharide chain of the monodesmosidic haemolytic saponin digitonin (1) undergoes an efficient and regioselective acylation in organic solvent by use of Novozym 435 (lipase B from Candida antarctica supported on acrylic resin) in the presence of an activated ester. With vinyl acetate, acetylation occurs at C-6 OH of glucose(II) and C-4 OH of xylose to afford the previously unreported diacetyl derivative 2 and the monoacetyl derivatives 3 and 4. With vinyl laurate only the monolauryl derivative 5 is formed. The structures of these acylated digitonins have been established using modern 2D NMR techniques, which allowed complete assignments of all proton resonances. The hemolytic activity of derivatives 2-5 is significantly reduced compared to that of digitonin.

Orthosilicate-mediated esterification of monosubstituted phosphinic acids

Monosubstituted phosphinic acids are esterified with orthosilicates in excellent yields. Phosphinylidene-containing acids react selectively under these conditions, while disubstituted phosphinic acids and phosphonic acids remain unchanged. One-pot procedures are also described for the preparation of phosphinate esters from an alcohol. This novel method provides a convenient and general alternative to more commonly employed conditions such as diazomethane or carbodiimide.

A catalytic oxidative esterification of aldehydes using V2O5-H2O2

[reaction: see text] Aldehydes, in the presence of methanol, undergo oxidative transformation to the corresponding esters upon treatment with catalytic amounts of vanadium pentoxide in combination with oxidant hydrogen peroxide. Mild reaction conditions, shorter reaction times, high efficiencies, cost-effectiveness, and facile isolation of the desired products make the present methodology a practical alternative.

In-line monitoring of esterification using a miniaturised mid-infrared spectrometer.

A miniaturised mid-infrared (MIR) spectrometer attached directly to an in-line immersion probe with an attenuated total reflectance crystal has been used to monitor the progression of the batch reaction of crotonic acid and 2-butanol in toluene. Univariate calibration, using the signal at 1188 cm(-1) in the 2nd derivative spectrum, gave accurate (average error, 1.6%) and precise (average relative standard deviation, 5.2%) estimation of 2-butyl crotonate concentrations in the range 0.08-0.49 mol dm(-3). Calibration by partial least squares was of no additional benefit in this application. The performance of in-line MIR spectrometry was comparable to that of an off-line reference gas chromatography method and superior to that of other in-line process analysis techniques (near-infrared, Raman or UV-visible spectrometries).
