An environmentally benign solvent-free Tishchenko reaction
Waddell, Daniel C.,Mack, James
, p. 79 - 82 (2009)
Herein, we describe the solvent-free ball milling Tishchenko reaction. Using high speed ball milling and a sodium hydride catalyst, the Tishchenko reaction was performed for aryl aldehydes in high yields in 0.5 hours. The reaction is not affected by the type of ball bearing used and can be successful when conducted in a liquid nitrogen environment.

(Chemical Equation Presented) Homoleptic heavier alkaline earth amides, M{N(SiMe3)2}2(THF)2 (M = Ca, Sr, and Ba) are reported as precatalysts for the dimerization of aldehydes to the analogous carboxylic esters (Tischenko reaction).
Chemoselective and Metal-Free Synthesis of Aryl Esters from the Corresponding Benzylic Alcohols in Aqueous Medium Using TBHP/TBAI as an Efficient Catalytic System

A novel and transition-metal-free strategy has been developed for the synthesis of aryl esters starting from corresponding benzylic primary alcohols as the exclusive substrates using tert -butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP) as a terminal oxidant in the presence of catalytic amount of tetrabutylammonium iodide (TBAI) and imidazole, where the aliphatic alcohols remained unaffected. These reactions are highly chemoselective and associated with high yield and wide applicability accommodating a wide range of substituents. Excellent chemoselectivity has also been demonstrated through intramolecular competition experiments. This protocol can be considered as an important analogue of Tishchenko reaction using benzylic alcohols as the substrates instead of benzaldehydes.
Polymeric ionic liquid and carbon black composite as a reusable supporting electrolyte: Modification of the electrode surface
Yoo, Seung Joon,Li, Long-Ji,Zeng, Cheng-Chu,Little, R. Daniel
, p. 3744 - 3747 (2015)
One of the major impediments to using electroorganic synthesis is the need for large amounts of a supporting electrolyte to ensure the passage of charge. Frequently this causes separation and waste problems. To address these issues, a polymeric ionic liqu
Aluminum complexes of β-hydroxy-imino ligands: Synthesis, structures and application in the Tishchenko reaction
Guo, Zhiqiang,Wang, Song,Wei, Xuehong

Four aluminum alkoxide complexes containing β-hydroxy-imino ligands, [(2,6-Me2C6H3)NCPhCH2CPh2O]2AlMe (3a), [(2,6-iPr2C6H3)NCPhCH2CPh2O]2AlMe (3b), [(2,6-Me2C6H3)NCPhCH2C(C12H8)OAlMe2]2 (3c) and [(2,6-iPr2C6H3)NCPhCH2C(C12H8)OAlMe2]2 (3d) were synthesized in high yields, and their structural features were provided. The catalytic behavior of those four complexes about the Tishchenko reaction with a range of aromatic aldehydes as substrates were assessed, and it present a synthetically useful protocol to the solvent-free Tishchenko reaction under mild conditions.

The first ruthenium dihydride complex featuring a phosphinine ligandcis-[Ru(H)2(2-PPh2-3-Me-6-SiMe3-PC5H2)2] was synthesised exclusively as thecis-isomer. When formedin situfrom the reaction ofcis-[Ru(Cl)2(2-PPh2-3-Me-6-SiMe3-PC5H2)2] with two equivalents of Na[BHEt3], as demonstrated by31P and1H NMR spectroscopy, the catalysed acceptorless dehydrogenation of benzyl alcohol was observed leading to benzyl benzoate in up to 70% yield.
N-Heterocyclic Carbene Catalyzed Ester Synthesis from Organic Halides through Incorporation of Oxygen Atoms from Air

Oxygenation reactions with molecular oxygen (O2) as the oxygen source provides a green and straightforward strategy for the construction of O-containing compounds. Demonstrated here is a novel N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) catalyzed oxidative transformation of simple and readily available organic halides into valuable esters through the incorporation of O-atoms from O2. Mechanistic studies prove that the deoxy Breslow intermediate generated in situ is oxidized to a Breslow intermediate for further transformation by this oxidative protocol. This method broadens the field of NHC catalysis and promotes oxygenation reactions with O2.
Aldehyde effect and ligand discovery in Ru-catalyzed dehydrogenative cross-coupling of alcohols to esters
Jiang, Xiaolin,Zhang, Jiahui,Zhao, Dongmei,Li, Yuehui
, p. 2797 - 2800 (2019/03/27)
The presence of different aldehydes is found to have a significant influence on the catalytic performance when using PN(H)P type ligands for dehydrogenation of alcohols. Accordingly, hybrid multi-dentate ligands were discovered based on an oxygen-transfer alkylation of PNP ligands by aldehydes. The relevant Ru-PNN(PO) system provided the desired unsymmetrical esters in good yields via acceptorless dehydrogenation of alcohols. Hydrogen bonding interactions between the phosphine oxide moieties and alcohol substrates likely assisted the observed high chemoselectivity.
