A new methodology has been developed for the preparation of unsubstituted enol esters. Its application is demonstrated by the obtainment of vinyl aromatic α-amino esters. A brief investigation of the preparation of other hydrophobic vinyl esters proved successful. Because of the mild reaction conditions employed, it is believed this route should provide access to other enol esters.
