Abstract
Treatment of carboxylic acids with boron trichloride followed by addition of alcohol provides the carboxylic ester. This esterification, following BCl3 ether or ester OC cleavage reaction conditions, proceeds cleanly in good yields with most substrates. Cleavage of benzyl esters with boron trichloride then treating with methanol affords the methyl ester.
