Suggested mechanisms of the transesterification reactions are discussed.
📌 3 Key Takeaways
🎯
Objective & Hypothesis:A new chemoselective method for the transesterification of alkyl esters in the presence of in situ formed alkoxyzinc salts was developed.
📊
Key Findings & Data:Electron-rich esters are less reactive than electron poor ones and this is the basis for the chemoselectivity of the reaction.
💡
Conclusion & Impact:Suggested mechanisms of the transesterification reactions are discussed.
