A simple microwave-assisted method for the conversion of carboxylicacids to MTM esters is presented. This new process allows for rapid introduction of an MTM ester protecting group to a variety of carboxylicacids including alkyl, electron-rich aromatic, and long chain unsaturated carboxylicacids. The products isolated from this reaction are very pure after a simple extraction, which eliminates the
