Abstract
This study describes a catalyst-free α-acyloxylation of ketones and a KBr-mediated α-acyloxylation of cyclic ethers. These conversions are effectively mediated by hypervalent iodine(III) reagents serving dual roles as the oxidant and nucleophilic source. Consequently, esters are produced directly in moderate to excellent yields. The proposed method features good functional group compatibility, a broad substrate scope, and high synthetic efficiency and is remarkably environmentally friendly.

Abstract
A metal-free oxidative decarboxylation reaction of propiolic acids mediated by hypervalent iodine(III) reagents is described. This decarboxylative C-O bond-forming reaction used a combination of (diacetoxyiodo)benzene and aromatic, heteroaromatic or aliphatic propiolic acids to give the corresponding α-acetoxy ketones. Preliminary mechanistic studies based on both DFT calculations and high-resolution mass spectroscopy (HRMS) suggested that the reaction proceeded through decarboxylation to form a propargyl iodide intermediate. This reaction provides an attractive alternative to existing methods for the exclusive synthesis of α-acyloxy ketones.

Abstract
In this note we report the synthesis of a doubly acylated cis-THF-diol product synthesised in three steps by the stereoselective RuO4-catalysed oxidative cyclisation of 1,5-hexadiene, followed by benzoylation and acetylation. This substance is one of the substrates chosen to probe a new developed oxidative procedure to transform bis-acylated THF-diols into bis-acylated 1,4-diketones. This new derivative was fully characterised by spectroscopic methods.
