2-alkoxy-3- - 2-alkoxyalkanoate ester

A wide range of organic substrates can undergo an oxidative carbonylation reaction. Depending on reaction conditions, alkenes have been converted into -chloroalkanoyl chlorides (oxidative chloro-chlorocarbonylation) [1,2], succinic diesters (oxidative dialkoxycarbonylation) [3-20], a,/J-unsaturated esters [21,22] (oxidative monoalkoxycarbonylation), or /J-alkoxyalkanoic esters [11] (oxidative alkoxy-alkoxycarbonylation), according to Eqs. 10-13.
