This work reports the synthesis of p-hydroxybenzoates directly from phenols by oxidative carbonylation of phenolic C–H bonds, proceding through oxidative iodination. The developed methodology is efficient and economically attractive because phenols are cheap and easily available starting materials. This one-pot strategy was expediently applied to the synthesis of a variety of p-hydroxybenzoates by utilizing simple primary and secondary alcohols with different phenols under mild reaction conditions. Advantageously, the procedure has no need for co-catalysts, co-solvents or external ligands. The utilization of molecular oxygen as a terminal oxidant for C–H bond oxidation represents an additional benefit.

Retinoid-like activity is exhibited by compounds of the formula STR1 where the R groups are independently hydrogen, or lower alkyl; A is --C(O)O--, --OC(O)--, --C(O)S--, or --SC(O)--; n is 0-5; and Z is H, --COB where B is --OH or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, or B is --OR 1 where R 1 is an ester-forming group, or B is --N(R) 2 where R is hydrogen or lower alkyl, or Z is --OE where E is hydrogen or an ether-forming group or --COR 2 where R 2 is hydrogen, lower alkyl, phenyl or lower alkyl phenyl, or Z is --CHO or an acetal derivative thereof, or Z is --COR 3 where R 3 is --(CH 2) m CH 3 where m is 0-4 and the sum of n and m does not exceed 4.
