Abstract

An unprecedented protocol for the synthesis of formate esters has been developed by employing N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) as both the source of CHO and solvent. This reaction undergoes ring opening of the cyclopropyl carbinols and in situ formation of homoallylic alcohols, which reacts with DMF to give the desired products. The substrate cyclopropyl carbinols with different groups participate smoothly in this process and the desired products are obtained in moderate to good yields.
