Acylation of secondary alcohols using non-activated esters, in particular symmetrical esters (such as ethyl acetate), is achieved under neutral conditions with the liberation of molecular hydrogen. This unprecedented, environmentally benign reaction is homogenously catalyzed by a dearomatized ruthenium pincer PNN complex. Copyright

A series of homo and heterocyclic alkanoates were prepared and evaluated as insect attractants toward Blattella germanica (L.) and Supella longipalpa (F.).Among these compounds, the tetrahydrofurfuryl alkanoates and 4-tetrahydropyranyl hexanoate showed relatively better activity.It was also observed that, in general, the five-membered compounds were better performers than their six-membered counterparts.The introdiction of an oxygen atom in the ring enhanced the activity, irrespective of the ring size.
