A new class of chiral iron catalysts is introduced that contains exclusively achiral ligands with the overall chirality being the result of a stereogenic iron center. Specifically, iron(II) is cis-coordinated to two N-(2-pyridyl)-substituted N-heterocycli

Trichloroacetimidates are useful reagents for the synthesis of esters under mild conditions that do not require an exogenous promoter. These conditions avoid the undesired decomposition of substrates with sensitive functional groups that are often observed with the use of strong Lewis or Br?nsted acids. With heating, these reactions have been extended to benzyl esters without electron-donating groups. These inexpensive and convenient methods should find application in the formation of esters in complex substrates.

An environmentally benign catalyst, the N,N′-dioxide-FeCl3 complex, has been developed for the asymmetric intramolecular Cannizzaro reaction. Aryl and alkyl glyoxal monohydrates were applied to obtain α-hydroxy acid esters with excellent results. Deuterium-label and control experiments shed light on the reaction mechanism.
