Successful benzylic C(sp3)-H acyloxylation of 2-alkylpyridine, 2-alkylpyrazine, and 2-alkylthiazole compounds was achieved using simple aldehydes. This was carried out via a copper-catalyzed tandem reaction, involving oxidative esterification followed by O-atom transfer of the resultant high yield formed Boekelheide intermediate. The method enables the preparation of functional heterocycles and the desymmetrization of 2,6-dialkylpyridines for efficient synthesis of dissymmetric pincer ligands, thus offering a new life for more practical Boekelheide rearrangement.

An efficient procedure for transferring an oxygen atom to thiazole-containing compounds, resulting in the corresponding N-oxides, was developed by using HOF·CH3CN; mild reaction conditions, high yields and easy purification are the main features of this novel route, while X-ray structural analysis reveals a hydrogen bond between the N-oxide functionality and a water molecule.
