A Nucleophilic Fe Catalyst for Transesterifications under Neutral Conditions
摘要:
Carboxylic esters belong to the most important functional groups in organic chemistry. Strong efforts have been made in developing mild catalytic procedures for their preparation. Among the various methods developed to date, transesterifications have occupied an important space. In the present paper, a new catalytic method for this process based on the use of nucleophilic Fe(-II) complexes is presented. Evidence for the formation of an intermediate acyl Fe complex will be presented as well as investigations on scope and limitations.

Cl3CCONH(2)/PPh(3) was a versatile reagent to convert carboxylic acids into their corresponding acid chlorides. This intermediate was clearly confirmed by spectroscopic methods (IR, (1)H, (13)C NMR). This one-pot reaction of in situ acid chloride generated with various alcohols successfully furnished the corresponding esters in moderate to excellent yields.
