A hydroxyl radical-mediated aerobic cleavage of alkenes and further sequence esterification reaction for the preparation of carbonyl compounds has been developed by using tubular carbon nitride (TCN) as a general...
A novel electrochemical esterification of alkynes for the synthesis of esters was developed in which diols and their derivatives were used as the partners.
Cu(ii)-catalyzed aerobic oxidative esterification of simple ketones is realized through α-oxygenation/esterification/nucleophilic addition/C–C bond cleavage with the release of CO2.
