Rhodium-Catalyzed Reductive Esterification Using Carbon Monoxide as a Reducing Agent

Carbon monoxide used to have a limited number of applications in organic chemistry, but it gradually increases its role as a mild and selective reducing agent. It can be applied for the carbon–heteroatom single bond formation via the reductive addition of hydrogen-containing nucleophiles to carbonyl compounds. In this paper, rhodium-catalyzed reductive esterification is described, and a comparative study of the rhodium and ruthenium catalysis in the reductive addition reactions is provided. Rhodium performs better on highly nucleophilic substrates and ruthenium is better for compounds with less nucleophilicity.

SUBSTITUENT EFFECTS IN THE PHOTOSOLVOLYSIS OF BENZYL DERIVATIVES. GENERAL STRUCTURE-REACTIVITY RELATIONSHIPS.

The relative reactivity of photosolvolysis of a number of substituted benzyl acetates is in the order ortho > meta > para, these substitutent effects being apparently additive, as suggested by the relative reactivity of photomethanolysis of several dimethoxy-susbstituted benzyl alcohols.
