Concerted Functions of Surface Acid–Base Pairs and Supported Copper Catalysts for Dehydrogenative Synthesis of Esters from Primary Alcohols

Dehydrogenative synthesis of esters from primary alcohols proceeded efficiently over a ZrO2-supported copper catalyst. A variety of esters were obtained from primary alcohols as well as diols in good to high yields. The key to the dehydrogenative synthesis of esters is the concerted effect of the ac...

Description
Summary:Dehydrogenative synthesis of esters from primary alcohols proceeded efficiently over a ZrO2-supported copper catalyst. A variety of esters were obtained from primary alcohols as well as diols in good to high yields. The key to the dehydrogenative synthesis of esters is the concerted effect of the acid–base pairs on ZrO2 and metallic copper.
