Abstract

Acetylation and formylation reactions of alcohols with ethyl acetate, acetic acid and ethyl formate were catalyzed with potassium dodecatungstocobaltate trihydrate (K 5 CoW 12 O 40 ·3H 2 O) in a mild, efficient and convenient method with high to excellent yields. ... Acetylation and formylation reactions of alcohols with ethyl acetate, acetic acid and ethyl formate, were catalyzed with potassium dodecatungstocobaltate trihydrate (K 5 CoW 12 O 40 ·3H 2 O) in a mild, ...
