A convenient and practical esterification was realized and this reaction proceeded without a dehydrating reagent or water removal equipment. The synthesis of esters by reaction of carboxylic acids with various alcohols such as methyl, ethyl, isopropyl, isobutyl, allyl, benzyl, propargyl and decanyl alcohols were achieved with a catalytic amount of CBr4 under refluxing reaction conditions.
