Abstract

A convenient and efficient procedure for the construction of esters from stable sulfoxonium ylides and alcohols has been developed. This protocol presents a broad substrate scope and good yields of the desired esters can be isolated. Notably, no catalyst, oxidant, base or any other additive is required.
