Abstract

•Direct oxidative esterification of aldehydes and alcohols is described.•Sonochemical procedure for this transformation using graphite oxide and Oxone is developed.•The protocol is advantageous as it takes place under mild conditions, in short reaction times and in good to high yields.

A sonochemical procedure for direct oxidative esterification of aldehydes and alcohols using graphite oxide and Oxone in an alcoholic solvent is described. Mild reaction conditions, short reaction times, cost-effectiveness, and facile isolation of the products make the present system as a practical method.
