The KI-catalyzed reaction of acetone with aromatic carboxylic acids is achieved, leading to α-acyloxycarbonyl compounds in good to excellent yields under mild reaction conditions. The present method exhibits good functional-group compatibility. Notably, this reaction system is even suitable for cinnamic acid, 3-phenylpropiolic acid and 4-phenylbutanoic acid. A kinetic isotope effect (KIE) study indicates

1,2-Dibromoethane and KI mediated α-acyloxylation of ketones with carboxylic acids
Abstract The 1,2-dibromoethane- and KI-mediated α-acyloxylation of ketones is reported in moderate to good yield without the use of transition metals and strong oxidants. Various acids are well tolerated with wide functional group compatibility. An 1,2-dibromoethane- and KI-catalysed reaction mechanism is proposed based on the results of control experiments.
