The reversible nature of the direct esterification of acids with alcohols limits the use of this process in the biocatalytic kinetic resolution of chiral acids. A new irreversible procedure, using orthoesters, has been developed.
Tetramethylammonium phenyltrialkylborates in the photoinduced electron transfer reaction with benzophenone. Generation of alkyl radicals and their addition to activated alkenes

Photoinduced one electron oxidation of tetramethylammonium phenyltrialkylborates by the excited state of benzophenone in an acetonitrile/benzene solution containing an excess of activated alkene produces substantially more than one equivalent of the alkyl radicals. The corresponding adducts of alkyl radicals to the alkenes are produced in good yields. No phenyl radical adducts are observed.
