Dichloromethane as a methylene synthon for regioselective linkage of diverse carboxylic acids: Direct access to methylene diesters under metal-free conditions

A metal-free cross coupling between common CH2Cl2 and carboxylic acids has been achieved with K2CO3 as the sole additive. This simple protocol is a convenient and cost-effective route to synthesize methylene die

Efficient method for synthesis of methylene diesters using polyethylene glycol as a phase transfer catalyst

Methylene diesters were synthesized in high yields at room temperature by reacting the potassium salt of a carboxylic acid with dibromo methane under the conditions of solid-liquid phase transfer catalysis using poly (ethylene glycol)-600 (PEG-600) as the
