With tetrabutylammonium iodide (TBAI) as the catalyst and tert-butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP) as the oxidant, a simple metal-free protocol has been developed for the synthesis of α-acyloxycarbonyl compounds from carbonylcompounds and α-oxo carboxylic acids via decarboxylative coupling reaction. The target products could be obtained in moderate to high yields.

A metal-free strategy has been developed for α-benzoxylation of benzylic alcohols with acids or aldehydes. The reaction proceeds via sequential oxidation and α-benzoxylation in one pot. Importantly, the reactions are performed in metal-free condition and utilize cheap aqueous TBHP as an oxidant, affording α-benzoxy ketones in moderate to good yields.
