In addition to drastically shortening the reaction times, the use of microwaves resulted, in general, in yields equal to or higher than those obtained by conventional heating.}, publisher = {ACS Publications}, keywords = {carboxylic acid}, keywords = {ketone}, keywords = {cyclic ether}, keywords = {oxidative coupling}, keywords = {microwave irradiation}, keywords = {ester preparation}, title = {Microwave-Enhanced Coupling of Carboxylic Acids with Liquid Ketones and Cyclic Ethers Using Tetrabutylammonium Iodide/t-Butyl Hydroperoxide}, doi = {10.1021/acs.joc.0c00519}, author = {Macías Benítez, Pablo and Moreno Dorado, Francisco Javier and Guerra Martínez, Francisco Miguel}, }
