Eine einfache Veresterungsmethode im Eintopf‐Verfahren

Abstract
A simple one‐pot method for esterificationA one‐pot procedure for esterifications of primary, secondary and tertiary alcohols and of phenols in high yield is described. Reaction of oxalylchloride with dimethylformamide in a suitable solvent affords dimethylformamide imidechloride; addition of an acid to the suspension of this reagent furnishes an activated carboxy‐group derivative, which is then transformed to an ester by addition of pyridine and an alcohol ro a phenol. Reaction temperatures needed for esterification are low, usually 0° to room temperature, reaction times are short.
