Triethyl orthoformate (TEOF) is an excellent reagent for converting compatible carboxylic acids to ethyl esters. Such carboxylic acids, refluxed neat in excess TEOF until low-boilers cease evolution, are quantitatively converted to the ethyl esters, without need for extraneous catalysis.<ref>{{Cite journal|last=Paine|first=John B.|date=July 2008|title=Esters of Pyromellitic Acid. Part I. Esters of Achiral Alcohols: Regioselective Synthesis of Partial and Mixed Pyromellitate Esters, Mechanism of Transesterification in the Quantitative Esterification of the Pyromellitate System Using Orthoformate Esters, and a Facile Synthesis of the Ortho Pyromellitate Diester Substitution Pattern|url=http://dx.doi.org/10.1021/jo800543w|journal=The Journal of Organic Chemistry|volume=73|issue=13|pages=4929–4938|doi=10.1021/jo800543w|pmid=18522420 |issn=0022-3263}}</ref> Alternatively, added to ordinary esterifications using catalytic acid and ethanol, TEOF helps drive esterification to completion by converting the byproduct water formed to ethanol and ethyl formate. |
