Visible-light-promoted conversion of alkyl benzyl ether to alkyl ester or alcohol via O-α-sp3 C-H cleavage

A mild and high-yielding visible-light-promoted conversion of alkyl benzyl ethers to the alkyl esters or alkyl alcohols was developed. Mechanistic studies provided evidence for a radical chain reaction involving the homolytic cleavage of O-α-sp3 C-H bonds in the substrate as one of the propagation steps. We propose that α-bromoethers are key intermediates in the transformation.

An efficient N-heterocyclic carbene based ruthenium-catalyst: Application towards the synthesis of esters and amides

A highly stable benzimidazolylidene based N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) ruthenium catalyst was prepared starting with readily accessible starting materials. Under inert gas atmosphere and in air the catalyst showed high activity for the direct synthesis of esters from primary alcohols and of amides from primary alcohols and amines. Di-, tri-, and oligo-amides were obtained by using specific starting materials.
