Abstract
Esterification reactions of alcohols with acetic, chloroacetic, trifluoroacetic, propionic, stearic, and benzoic acids were catalyzed with Ce (OTf) 4 in a solvent or under solvent-free conditions with high yields. The formylation and acetylation of primary and secondary alcohols were also easily achieved in ethyl formate and ethyl acetate. A high retention of the configuration was observed in the acetylation and formylation of (−)-menthol.
