The development of many useful protective groups has been reported based on the functionality of the anilino group. Herein, we discuss our study of various protective groups and the processes we used to establish compatibility with anilino functionality via the implementation of Oxone-mediated oxidative esterification in methanol. The results and the details of our experiments are reported herein.展开更多

The successful reactions required 5 mol% of indium(III) triflate, and toluene was proved to be the most suitable solvent. Various amides were subjected to this method, and each produced the corresponding nitriles in excellent yields.展开更多

Herein, using benzaldehyde and its derivatives as starting materials, Oxone-mediated preparation of ester derivatives in the presence of a catalytic amount of indium(III) triflate is described. Alcohols with various chain lengths, which functioned as solvents and substrates, were examined. Overall, the oxidative esterification starting with benzaldehyde derivatives possessing electron withdrawing groups proceeded smoothly and gave sufficient yields, in comparison to the reactions with the derivatives having electron donating groups.展开更多

Various protecting groups areavailable to mask the vulnerable functionality;phenolic hydroxy groups are noteworthy examples, but their stability differs when protected. Herein, the compatibility of protective phenolic functionality was investigated with the implementation of indium (III) triflate-catalyzed oxidative esterification using Oxone in methanol. A wide range of protective moieties was selected and subjected to Oxone-mediated oxidative esterification. For example, sulfonates were found to be sufficiently stable and inert whereas acetals were susceptible to reaction conditions. The details of this investigation are provided.展开更多
