A mild and efficient method for the preparation of esters has been found in the silver ion induced reaction of alcohols with 2‐pyridyl esters of thiocarboxylic S‐acids. Examples are given to show the utility of this push button activation for the rapid formation of macrocyclic lactones and esters at room temperature under non‐basic conditions.
