An unprecedented protocol for the synthesis of formate esters has been developed by employing N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) as both the source of CHO and solvent. This reaction undergoes ring opening of the cyclopropyl carbinols and in situ formation of homoallylic alcohols, which reacts with DMF to give the desired products. The substrate cyclopropyl carbinols with different groups participate smoothly in this process and the desired products are obtained in moderate to good yields.

An efficient one-pot route to synthesize tertiary alcohol compounds using Barbier-Grignard reaction of unactivated alkyl or aryl bromides with ester in THF at 65 °C catalyzed by CuO has been developed and systematically investigated. A wide range of substituted tertiary alcohol compounds were obtained in good to high yields. The reaction is highly chemoselective. The mechanism involving the leaving group of R2O-group is discussed.
