Promoters for Pd-catalyzed methoxycarbonylation of vinyl acetate

Abstract

A study on the influence of acidic and non-acidic promoters for Pd(PPh 3)-catalyzed methoxycarbonylation of vinyl acetate was conducted in order to find an efficient protocol for the synthesis of methyl O-acetyl lactate. Besides known promoters also some new catalytic systems were tested. Aluminium triflate is the most active additive.
