The Steglich esterification is a widely employed method for the formation of esters under mild conditions. A number of issues regarding the sustainability of this transformation have been identified, chiefly the use of hazardous carbodiimide coupling reagents in conjunction with solvents with considerable issues such as dichloromethane (DCM) and N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF). To overcome these issues, we have developed a solvent-reagent selection guide for the formation of esters via Steglich-type reactions with the aim of providing safer, more sustainable conditions. Optimum reaction conditions have been identified after high-throughput screening of solvent-reagent combinations, namely the use of Mukaiyama's reagent (Muk) in conjunction with solvent dimethyl carbonate (DMC). The new reaction conditions were also exemplified through the synthesis of a small selection of building-block like molecules and includes the formation of t-butyl esters.

Direct C-H functionalization of aromatic compounds is a powerful tool for organic synthesis; however, differentiation among the ubiquitous and often chemically similar C-H bonds remains a significant challenge. Conflation with coordinating or directing groups incorporated into the intended substrate has helped address these limitations, although access to remote sites remains limited. Herein, we report an operationally simple and sustainable direct meta-selective H2N amination of benzylic and related aromatic picolinates under conditions mild enough to modify polyfunctional and late-stage molecules.
Thorium complexes possessing expanded ring N-heterocyclic iminato ligands: Synthesis and applications

Six and seven membered N-heterocyclic iminato ligands (L) are introduced allowing access a new class of Th(iv) complexes of the type Cp?2Th(L)(CH3). These complexes were studied in the Tishchenko reaction. Stoichiometric reactions together with kinetic and thermodynamic studies permit us to propose a plausible mechanism.
