An efficient synthetic strategy towards beta-lactams, amides, and esters involving “in situ” generation of ketenes and subsequent trapping with nucleophiles is presented. Carbonylation of carbene radical intermediates using the cheap and highly active cobalt(II) tetramethyltetraaza[14]annulene catalyst [Co(MeTAA)] provides a convenient one-pot synthetic protocol towards substituted ketenes. N-tosylhydrazones are used as carbene precursors, thereby bridging the gap between aldehydes and ketenes. Activation of these carbene precursors by the metalloradical cobalt(II) catalyst affords CoIII-carbene radicals, which subsequently react with carbon monoxide to form ketenes. In the presence of a nucleophile (imine, alcohol, or amine) in the reaction medium the ketene is immediately trapped, resulting in the desired products in a one-pot synthetic protocol. The β-lactams formed upon reaction with imines are produced in a highly trans-selective manner.

A rapid and efficient protocol assisted by microwave irradiation for the synthesis of esters using methanesulfonic acid (CH3SO3H) supported on Al2O3 (AMA) as catalyst and free of solvent is described. The products were obtained in good yields and purity, with reduced reaction time, and the process is simple and environmentally benign. Copyright
PROCESS FOR SYNTHESIZING PHENYLACETIC ACID BY CARBONYLATION OF TOLUENE

Paragraph 0032; 0033, (2013/11/19)
A production process for substituted phenylacetic acids or ester analogues thereof is disclosed. In this process toluene or toluene substituted with various substituents, an alcohol, an oxidant and carbon monoxide are used as raw materials to obtain compounds comprising structure of phenylacetic acid ester or analogues thereof by catalysis of the complex catalyst formed from transition metal and ligand, and such compounds are hydrolyzed to obtain various substituted phenylacetic acid based compounds. This type of compounds and their derivatives serve as important fine chemicals used widely in the industries of pharmaceuticals, pesticides, perfume and the like.
