Summarycommon mechanism of activation:- suppressing acidic properties- first step is nucleophilic attack of carboxylate- oxygen is taken to form low energy side productdesired reaction realization:- one-pot synthesis- easy separable, non-toxic and non-corrosive side products- water tolerant- no additional base needed- room temperature, high yields
