Abstract

A simple and mild procedure for the facile oxidative esterification of aldehydes and alcohols using potassium iodide (KI) in combinzation with tert-butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP) as an external oxidant is described. Oxidative esterification is induced by iodine generated in situ by the chemical oxidation of KI with TBHP.
