The utility and applicability of polyethylene-g-polyacrylic acid-immobilized dimethylaminopyridine (g-DMAP) as a catalyst in a continuous-flow system were investigated for decarboxylative esterification. High catalytic activity toward acylation was provided by g-DMAP containing a flexible grafted-polymer structure. During decarboxylation, carboxylic acids and alcohols were converted cleanly using di-tert-butyl dicarbonate (Boc2O) as a coupling reagent, which reduced by-products. In addition, the use of Boc2O resulted in the formation of tert-butyl esters. These esterifications dramatically reduced the reaction time under continuous-flow conditions, with a residence time of approximately 2 min. This highly efficient esterification procedure will provide more practical industrial applications.

Simple and efficient NHC-catalyzed transformations of bromoenal or α,β-dibromoenal into α,β-unsaturated esters or amides with high stereoselectivity through C-O or C-N bond formation have been demonstrated. The NHC-catalyzed processes occur under mild con

The invention provides a green process for direct oxidation of a large number of substituted or unsubstituted cinnamaldehydes or cinnamyl alcohols into the corresponding alkyl or aryl cinnamates in one step. The process of the present invention is a convenient and efficient green process for the preparation of various aryl or alkyl cinnamates under conventional, microwave and ultrasound directly from cinnamaldehydes or cinnamyl alcohols in the presence of an oxidizing agent, catalyst and an alcohol, with or without an organic solvent. These esters are immensely important compounds in flavor, perfumery and pharmaceutical industries. There are several prior arts available for the preparation of cinnamic esters, but all of them suffer from deficiencies such as use of expensive reagents and catalysts, harsh reaction conditions, use of toxic chemicals and others. In contrast, the present methodology is extremely simple and involves reaction of the substrate with an oxidizing agent mixed with a homogeneous or heterogeneous catalyst and an alcohol with or without organic solvent by stirring at room temperature or refluxing or under microwave or ultrasound irradiation to get the requisite products.
