In this report, we have developed a sustainable protocol for the synthesis of aromatic esters by a carbonylative method using di-μ-chlorobis [5-hydroxy-2-[1-(hydroxyimino-?N) ethyl] phenyl-?C] palladium (II) dimer (1) catalyst in PEG-400 as a greener and recyclable solvent. The reaction is carried out at room temperature using CO in a balloon. Good to excellent yield of various esters can be synthesize using this protocol. Direct insertion of CO moiety leads to the high atom and step economy. Compared to previous protocol this phosphine free approach for the synthesis of aromatic esters provides high Turnover Number (TON) and Turnover Frequency (TOF). Developed approach has an alternative route for use of conventional palladium precursor with high conversion and selectivity. The catalyst system and product can easily be separated using diethyl ether as a solvent. The Pd/PEG-400 system could be reused up to a fifth consecutive cycle without any loss of its activity and selectivity.

An electrochemical On-Off method for phenolic ester synthesis from N-alkoxyamides has been reported. This one-pot protocol begins with rapid and selective electrodimerization of the amide using n-Bu4NI (TBAI) as an electrocatalyst. The reaction proceeds further in the absence of current via Zn catalyzed C?N bond activation of the amide dimer followed by its coupling with phenol to form the ester. The present methodology is ligand-free and takes place under mild reaction conditions. This transformation incorporates a wide variety of phenols and amide substrates leading to the formation of functionalized esters highlighting its versatility. (Figure presented.).
