Chromatography-Free Esterification Reactions Using a Bifunctional Polymer

, p. 1207 - 1210 (2016)
A linear polystyrene functionalized with both nucleophilic DMAP groups and sterically hindered tertiary amine groups was synthesized and used homogeneously in a range of esterification reactions between alcohols and various carboxylic acid derivatives. The polymer was highly effective in such reactions where the DMAP groups served as catalytic groups. The ester products of these reactions could be isolated in high purity and yield without the need for chromatographic purification, and the polymer could be recovered and reused numerous times with no apparent decrease in utility.

The synthesis of 18O-labeled enantioenriched compounds and their facile evaluation system to determine enantiomeric excess (ee) using mass spectroscopy was described. Equimolar mixture of 18O-labeled and non-labeled pseudo-enantiomers were used as a substrate for enzyme-catalyzed kinetic resolution. Ees determined by mass spectroscopy showed good agreement with those by HPLC. Our method would be a promising tool for fast evaluation of ee and contribute to development of enantioselective transformations.

A method has been developed for the conversion of primary, secondary, and tertiary alcohols, and phenol, into the corresponding esters at room temperature. The method uses a titanium(III) species generated from a substoichiometric amount of titanocene dichloride together with manganese(0) as a reductant, as well as methylene diiodide. It involves a transesterification from an ethyl ester, or a reaction with an acyl chloride. A radical mechanism is proposed for these transformations.
