Abstract

Correction for ‘Desymmetrization of disubstituted aromatic crown ethers via intramolecular Cannizzaro reactions’ by Mason A. Rouser et al., New J. Chem., 2019, 43, 16801–16805.


The authors would like to correct Fig. 1, as the peaks are labeled incorrectly in the published article. The label at m/z 628.2979 should read “2e + NH4+” and the peak at m/z 633.2533 should be labeled “2e + Na+”. The correct Fig. 1 is shown below.

Fig. 1 ESI HR MS of DB30C10 acid–alcohol product 2e obtained using Ba(OH)2 as the base and templating agent in the intramolecular Cannizzaro reaction of dialdehyde 2c. Note the absence of starting dialdehyde 2c [m/z 593.3 (M + H)+], diol 2b [m/z 614.3 and 619.3 (M + NH4)+] and diacid 2d [m/z 642.3 (M + Na)+], products that were formed when NaOH was used as the base.

The Royal Society of Chemistry apologises for these errors and any consequent inconvenience to authors and readers.
