N-Heterocyclic carbene catalysed aerobic oxidation of aromatic aldehydes to aryl esters using boronic acids

Abstract: The organocatalytic behavior of N-heterocyclic carbenes in the aerobic oxidation of aromatic aldehydes to esters with boronic acids has been explored. This transition metal-free protocol allows access to a wide variety of aromatic esters in good to excellent yields under mild reaction conditions.

“…[17] Carboxylic acids can be coupled with arylboronic acids or silanes in copper-mediated reactions at elevated temperature. [18,19] Aryl esters can also be synthesized from carboxylic acids and phenols by iron-catalyzed oxidative activation. [20] Pd-catalyzed oxidative coupling of phenols with aromatic aldehydes or benzylic alcohols [21] or carbonylative coupling with aryl halides also deliver aryl esters.…”

“…Beispielsweise gelang es Arnand und Mitarbeitern, Arylester aus Boronsäuren zu erzeugen (Schema 15). [34] Dies war die Abwandlung einer früheren Entdeckung von Gois und Mitarbeitern, die einen Eisen-NHC-Komplex verwendeten, um dieselbe Umwandlung zu realisieren. [35] Chen gelang es,d ie gleichen Produkte (Arylester) durch eine oxidative Palladium/NHC-Veresterung von Aldehyden und Phenolen zugänglich zu machen.…”

“…Recently, we developed an efficient organocatalytic route for the direct conversion of aromatic aldehydes into aryl esters by using aryl boronic acids under oxidative NHC‐catalyzed conditions 14. Although aryl esters were obtained in excellent yields, this method did not allow us to access aliphatic esters because aliphatic boronic acids did not react with the aldehydes under the optimized reaction conditions.…”
