A general and excellent acylation reagent, diacyl disulfide, was uncovered for efficient ester formation enabled by DMAP (4-(N,N-dimethylamino)pyridine) catalysis. This protocol offered a promising synthetic platform on site-selective acylation of phenolic and primary aliphatic hydroxyl groups, which greatly expanded the realm of protecting group chemistry. The importance of the reagent was also reflected
