A CO-gas-free rhodium-catalyzed alkoxycarbonylation of aryl iodide with alcohols has been developed. Alcohols, with/without the aid of an aldehyde, were used as a carbon monoxide and nucleophile source. The former synthesis afforded better yields of the alkoxycarbonylated products. Moreover, phenols also afforded phenoxycarbonylation products with high yields.
