Abstract
Methyl- and ethyl arylcarboxylates were synthesized by palladium-catal yzed alkoxycarbonylation of various aryl p-toluenesulfonates (tosylate s). Yields were highly dependent on the substituent of aryl tosylates and phosphine ligands used. Ethoxycarbonylation of 4-acetylphenyl tosy late by the use of a bisphosphine ligand gave ethyl 4-acetylbenzoate i n quite satisfactory yields.
