A convenient method is reported to specifically acylate phenolic hydroxyl groups through a radical pathway. When a mixture of an aldehyde and a phenol in ethyl acetate is irradiated with blue light in the presence of iridium and nickel bromide catalysts at ambient temperature, phenoxyl and acyl radicals are transiently generated in situ and cross-couple to furnish an ester. Aliphatic hydroxy groups remain untouched under the reaction conditions.

A method for direct cross coupling between unactivated C(sp3)-H bonds and chloroformates has been accomplished via nickel and photoredox catalysis. A diverse range of feedstock chemicals, such as (a)cyclic alkanes and toluenes, along with late-stage intermediates, undergo intermolecular C-C bond formation to afford esters under mild conditions using only 3 equiv of the C-H partner. Site selectivity is predictable according to bond strength and polarity trends that are consistent with the intermediacy of a chlorine radical as the hydrogen atom-abstracting species.
Reactivity of mixed organozinc and mixed organocopper reagents: 12. Three component reaction of mixed (n-alkyl)(diaryl)zincates, chloroformates and phosphines for the synthesis of esters

The reaction of mixed n-butyldiphenylzincate, n-BuPh2ZnMgBr with ethyl chloroformate, ClCOOEt in the presence n-Bu3P in THF takes place with quantitative yield and phenyl group transfer to give PhCOOEt. Ethoxycarbonylation of n-BuPh2ZnMgBr is preferable to the reaction of PhMgBr forming ester and triphenylcarbinol and also to the reaction of triphenylzincate, Ph3ZnMgBr for atom economy. Group selectivity in the phosphine catalyzed C-COOR coupling of n-BuPh2ZnMgBr and n-Bu2PhZnMgBr can be controlled by changing reaction parameters. n-Bu3P catalyzed reaction of n-BuPh2ZnMgBr with ClCOOEt takes place with phenyl selectivity whereas reaction of n-Bu2PhZnMgBr with ClCOOPh results in n-butyl transfer. Catalysis by Ph3P increases n-butyl group:phenyl group transfer ratio in the ethoxycarbonylation of both zincates. Selective transfer of aryl groups in n-Bu3P catalyzed reaction of n-butyl(aryl)2ZnMgBr reagents with ClCOOEt in THF provides a new procedure for the organometallic synthesis of arenecarboxylic acid ethyl esters at room temperature.
