Chemoselective Electro-oxidation of Allyl Arene to Ester
An electrochemical C—H and C—C bond esterification reaction with allyl arene as a substrate is reported.This oxidation takes place selectively at the benzyl+allyl C—H site instead of other benzylic C—H groups.Since the reaction does not require acid/base catalysis for esterification,tertiary alcohol is suitable for the synthesis of the corresponding ester.In addition,side reactions such as transesterification can be avoided with this neutral protocol.
