Benzenethiol is reacted with acetic acid in a hydrogen stream over [(Mo6Cl8)Cl4(H2O) 2]·6H2O. Catalytic activity of the clusters appears above 200 °C, yielding S-phenyl thioacetate. The selectivity is 98% at 300 °C. Niobium, tantalum, and tungsten halide clusters with the same octahedral metal framework also catalyze the reaction. Benzoic acid and aliphatic carboxylic acids afford the corresponding S-phenyl carbothioates by reaction with benzenethiol. Aliphatic thiols are also S-acylated to yield the corresponding S-alkyl carbothioates. When carboxylic esters are applied to the reaction with benzenethiol over [(Nb6Cl12)Cl 2(H2O)4]·4H2O at 450 °C, the sterically unhindered moiety of the ester is incorporated into the products: S-phenyl thioacetate or methyl phenyl sulfide is obtained selectively. A Br?nsted acid site developed on the cluster complex by thermal activation is the active site of the catalyst. Hence, solid acids such as silica-alumina, zeolites, and heteropoly acids that are stable above 200 °C also catalyze these reactions.

Condensation of carboxylic acids with alcohols, phenols and thiols proceeded smoothly to afford carboxylic acid alkyl esters, phenolic esters and thioesters by using the combination of chlorodiphenylphosphine, imidazole and molecular iodine in refluxing acetonitrile. Esterification with this mixed reagent system gave the corresponding products in excellent yields. The phosphorus-containing byproduct was simply removed from the organic phase by basic aqueous workup without the need for chromatography purification.

(Chemical Equation Presented) The 2,2′-, 3,3′-, and 4,4′-azopyridines (azpy) and their alkyl pyridinium ionic liquids were studied as a new class of electron-deficient reagents for Mitsunobu esterification reactions. Among these compounds, 4,4′-azopyridine was found to be the most suitable one for esterification and thioesterification reactions. This new reagent promises to provide general and complementary solutions for separation problems in Mitsunobu reactions without restricting the reaction scope and facilitates the isolation of its hydrazine byproduct. The pyridine hydrazine byproduct can be simply recycled to its azopyridine by an oxidation reaction.
