ZnO nanoparticles have been synthesized from zinc acetate using 1-octyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate as capping agent under microwave irradiation condition in a very short period of time and characterized using UV-visible spectroscopy, powder X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy and NH3-TPD analysis. The ZnO NPs have been used as a solid reusable acid catalyst for esterification of carboxylic acids with alcohols.

An efficient metal free protocol has been developed for the synthesis of benzylic esters via a cross dehydrogenative coupling (CDC) involving alkylbenzene(s) as a self- or as a cross-coupling partner(s) via the intermediacy of Ar-COOH and the benzylic carbocation obtained from the other half of the alkylbenzene; both symmetrical as well as unsymmetrical esters can be prepared using Bu4NI and TBHP.
