Base-metal-catalyzed dehydrogenative cross-coupling of primary alcohols to form cross-esters as major products, liberating hydrogen gas, is reported. The reaction is catalyzed by a pincer complex of earth-abundant manganese in the presence of catalytic base, without any hydrogen acceptor or oxidant. Mechanistic insight indicates that a dearomatized complex is the actual catalyst, and indeed this independently prepared dearomatized complex catalyzes the reaction under neutral conditions.

A study of secondary, benzylic, and primary alcohols oxidation on a reference Au/TiO2 catalyst is reported. Reactions gave rise to ketones, aldehydes, or esters in good yields. The FT-IR results and catalytic tests data provide to elucidate the reaction mechanism and the specific role of the active sites on titania.

By using a strained four-membered ring disilane (3,4-benzo-1,1,2,2-tetraethyldisilacyclobutene) and CsF, a wide range of aryl, alkenyl, alkynyl, benzyl, allyl, and alkyl halides was successfully carboxylated under an ambient CO2 atmosphere (CO2 balloon) at room temperature within 2 h. In this carboxylation, a highly reactive silyl anion, which is generated from the disilane and CsF, is a key to facilitating the formation of a carbanion equivalent. The resulting anionic species can be trapped with CO2 to produce carboxylic acids with high efficiency.

Page/Page column 5, (2008/06/13)
A process for producing esters wherein a carboxylic acid is reacted with an alcohol in the presence of a hydrolyzable catalyst in an aqueous medium under mixing to produce a reaction mixture comprising an organic phase containing ester and an aqueous phase.
Oxidation process of ethers

, (2008/06/13)
An ether is oxidized with oxygen under an oxidation catalyst comprising an imide compound (such as N-hydroxyphthalimide) or the imide compound and a co-catalyst to produce the corresponding chain or cyclic ester or anhydride. The co-catalyst may be a transition metal compound. The above process provides a process for oxidizing an ether by oxygen efficiently to produce the corresponding oxide (such as an ester, an hydride) with high conversion and selectivity.

Catalyst-free esterification of carboxylic acids with alcohols has been studied, and the optimal process conditions have been determined.
BAEYER-VILLIGER OXIDATION WITH Me3SiOOSiMe3 UNDER ASSISTANCE OF SnCl4 OR BF3-OEt2.
Matsubara,Takai,Nozaki
, p. 2029 - 2032 (2007/10/02)
Treatment of ketones with bis(trimethylsilyl) peroxide and Lewis acid such as SnCl//4 or BF//3-OEt//2 in dichloromethane at room temperature affords esters in fair to excellent yields. Jasmine lactone is synthesized from 2- left bracket (Z)-pentenyl right bracket cyclopentanine by means of Me//3SiOOSiMe//3-BF//3-OEt//2 system without any protection of the carbon-carbon double bond. The oxidation of enol acetates of ketones to alpha -hydroxy (or alpha -acetoxy) ketones with Me//3SiOOSiMe//3-FeCl//3 system is also disclosed.
