Abstract

A facile, atom-economical, and efficient Cu(OAc)2-catalyzed oxidative esterification of substituted p-cresols was developed with ambient air as the terminal oxidant. This ligand- and additive-free esterification protocol allows an environmentally benign and reagent-economical access to benzyl esters.
