while reading selective oxidation of secondary alcohols http://www.uploadtemple.com/view.php/1120154733.pdf i saw a brief mention that when aldehydes are oxidized with Br2 in MeOH the methyl esters forms.
does this mean the oxidation forms the acid bromide intermidiete?
ie.i. RCOH + Br2 --> RCOBr + HBr
so if this was done in a non-nucleophilic solvent one could use it to produce acid bromides?

if there is something present to buffer the acid prouced does one have to worry about alpha halogenation, and are any special catalysts or UV needed to initiat the reaction?
