Bromo-catalyzed photo esterification of benzylsilanes with alcohols under aerobic conditions

A photoinduced esterification reaction has been developed. In this reaction, benzylsilane shows very nice reactivity and selectivity, affording the corresponding esters as the only products. Under photo irradiation, the highly active bromo radical can be generated from the pre-catalyst CBr4, which w...
