has been developed for the synthesis of diphenylmethyl (DPM) esters from 2-diphenylmethoxypyridine. Various carboxylic acids readily reacted with 2-diphenylmethoxypyridine in the presence of FeCl3 as a catalyst to provide the desired DPM esters with high yields. The procedure is facile and enables effective synthesis of a variety of esters for the protection of carboxylic acids. Graphical Abstract
