Abstract
Reactive chlorides ZCH(2)Cl (Z = C6H5, CH3OC(O), CN) are readily carbo nylated into esters with methyl formate as the sole source of carbon m onoxide and methanol, the tetracarbonyl cobaltate anion as the catalys t and sodium carbonate as the base. The reaction occurs after in situ prior mild decomposition of methyl formate with a catalytic amount of sodium methoxide.
