Herein, we describe the application of a nonbenzenoid aromatic carbocation, namely tropylium, as an organic Lewis acid catalyst in O-H functionalization reactions of diazoalkanes with benzoic acids. The newly developed protocol is applicable to a wide range of diazoalkane and carboxylic acid substrates with excellent efficiency (43 examples, up to 99% yield).

A rapid, economic, and high yielding methodology has been developed for hydroacylation/reduction of activated ketones by using 1,3-bis(2,4,6- trimethylphenyl)imidazolium chloride as a catalyst in combination with triethylamine. The reaction proceeded at an ambient temperature via generating N-heterocyclic carbene in situ that interacted with the (hetero)aryl aldehyde employed. While the reduction of ketones takes place in MeOH, the hydroacylation process was found to be effective in THF for both electron rich and deficient aldehydes.
