N-Heterocyclic Carbene Catalyzed Ester Synthesis from Organic Halides through Incorporation of Oxygen Atoms from Air

Oxygenation reactions with molecular oxygen (O2) as the oxygen source provides a green and straightforward strategy for the construction of O-containing compounds. Demonstrated here is a novel N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) catalyzed oxidative transformation of simple and readily available organic halides into valuable esters through the incorporation of O-atoms from O2. Mechanistic studies prove that the deoxy Breslow intermediate generated in situ is oxidized to a Breslow intermediate for further transformation by this oxidative protocol. This method broadens the field of NHC catalysis and promotes oxygenation reactions with O2.

Preparation method for synthesizing ester compound by using N-Boc amide as raw material

The invention relates to a preparation method for synthesizing an ester compound by using N-Boc amide as a raw material. According to the method, an inorganic base is used as a catalyst; the N-Boc amide is subjected to an intermolecular nucleophilic substitution reaction with various alcohol compounds; and various ester compounds can be efficiently obtained. The method has the advantages of beingmild in reaction condition, simple and convenient to operate, high in yield and favorable in functional-group compatibility.

Base-free oxidation of alcohols to esters at room temperature and atmospheric conditions using nanoscale Co-based catalysts

The direct oxidation of alcohols to esters with molecular oxygen is an attractive and crucial process for the synthesis of fine chemicals. To date, the heterogeneous catalyst systems that have been identified are based on noble metals or have required the addition of base additives. Here, we show that Co nanoparticles embedded in nitrogen-doped graphite catalyze the aerobic oxidation of alcohols to esters at room temperature under base-free and atmospheric conditions. Our Co@C-N catalytic system features a broad substrate scope for aromatic and aliphatic alcohols as well as diols, giving their corresponding esters in good to excellent yields. This apparently environmentally benign process provides a new strategy with which to achieve selective oxidation of alcohols.
