To a mixture of di-μ-chlorobis(1,5-cyclooctadiene)diiridium(I) [Ir(cod)Cl]2 (0.01 mmol) and sodium hydrogencarbonate (1.2 mmol) in toluene (1.0 ml), 1-octanol (130 mg, 1 mmol) and vinyl acetate (2 mmol) were added, followed by stirring at 100° C. in an atmosphere of argon gas for 2 hours. The reaction mixture was analyzed by gas chromatography to find that 1-octyl vinyl ether and octyl acetate were produced in yields of 93% and 2%, respectively, with a conversion from 1-octanol of 99%.
