Microwave-promoted synthesis of β-hydroxyesters by the Reformatsky reaction in the absence of solvent

A microwave-promoted Reformatsky reaction of aldehydes and ketones with ethyl bromoacetate, in the absence of solvent, using activated zinc metal and solid NH4Cl afforded the corresponding β-hydroxyesters in good to excellent yields.
