Abstract

A simple and regioselective synthesis of phenoxy esters and phenylthio esters is reported. The products are obtained by selective alkoxycarbonylation catalyzed by Pd2(dba)3, 1,4-bis(diphenylphisphino)butane (dppb), and syngas (CO/H2) in chloroform/alcohol. This methodology affords bifunctional products in good yield with excellent n-selectivity and without the need to use additives.
