Abstract

Prussian blue triggered transesterification of ethylacetoacetate with various alcohols underwent efficiently. The reaction is mild, eco-friendly, and selective with good yields. The proposed reaction pathway depicts the formation of an intermediate by the interaction of β- ketoesters with catalytic site of the Prussian blue, followed by nucleophilic attack of the alcohol at the electrophilic center followed by successive elimination of the proton to give ...
