Iodine-catalyzed synthesis of β-uramino crotonic esters as well as oxidative esterification of carboxylic acids in choline chloride/urea: a desirable alternative to organic solvents

Abstract: Iodine-mediated selective synthesis of β-uramino crotonic esters was achieved via the reaction of β-dicarbonyls and urea at room temperature. Choline chloride/urea mixture, as an eco-friendly, cheap, non-toxic, and recyclable deep eutectic solvent (DES), was employed as sustainable media as well as reagent at the same time in these transformations. Some derivatives of β-uramino crotonic esters were synthesized with good to high yields without a tedious work-up. The process could be done to synthesize the above-mentioned compounds in gram scale. Moreover, oxidative cross-esterification of carboxylic acids with alkyl benzenes was carried out in the above-mentioned DES by the employment of tetrabutylammonium iodide (TBAI) as the catalyst and tert-butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP) as the oxidant at 80?°C. DES/TBAI system was reused up to five consecutive times. Graphic abstract: Iodine-catalyzed C–N and C–O bond formation in choline chloride/urea as a green solvent under the mild reaction conditions.

Catalytic conversion of ketones to esters: Via C(O)-C bond cleavage under transition-metal free conditions

The catalytic conversion of ketones to esters via C(O)-C bond cleavage under transition-metal free conditions is reported. This catalytic process proceeds under solvent-free conditions and offers an easy operational procedure, broad substrate scope with excellent selectivity, and reaction scalability. This journal is

Base-Promoted Amidation and Esterification of Imidazolium Salts via Acyl C-C bond Cleavage: Access to Aromatic Amides and Esters

Imidazolium salts have been effectively employed as suitable acyl transfer agents in amidation and esterification in organic synthesis. The weak acyl C(O)-C imidazolium bond was exploited to generate acyl electrophiles, which further react with amines and alcohols to afford amides and esters. The broad substrate scope of anilines and benzylic amines and base-promoted conditions are the benefits of this route. Interestingly, phenol, benzylic alcohols, and a biologically active alcohol can also be subjected to esterification under the optimized conditions.
