Perchloric acid adsorbed on silica gel efficiently catalyses acetylation of structurally diverse phenols, alcohols, thiols, and amines under solvent free conditions.

This report discloses a mild and efficient O-acetylation using easily accessible TMSOAc as novel acetyl reagent O-trimethylsilylation HMDS for various alcohols catalyzed by tunable Brønsted acidic ionic liquids (TBAILs). Imidazolium-based TBAILs were prepared two-step atom-economic reaction acidities measured UV-visible spectroscopy. Both protections accomplished at room temperature with good t...

Using enantioselective M D G C the enantiom eric d istribution o f alkan-(alken-)2-yl-acetates from bananas is achieved. A fter simple acetylation their corresponding alcohols 2-pentanol, 2-hexanol, 2-heptanol and (Z)-4-hepten-2-ol respectively are also exactly stereodifferentiated by the same method. All com pounds investigated esters as well as alcohols exhibit a rem arkable excess o f the (5...

Archetypal O-acetylation reactions of alcohols and carbohydrates proceed rapidly in high yield under mild conditions in a dicyanamide based ionic liquid, that is not only an effective solvent but also an active base catalyst.

Succinimidinium hydrogensulfate ([H-Suc]HSO4), as a new and stable derivative of succinimide, is easily prepared by the reaction of succinimide with neat sulfuric acid. This ionic liquid can be used as an efficient catalyst for the acetylation of alcohols, phenols, thiols and amines at room temperature under mild and solvent free conditions. All the products are separated and identified using d...

In this study, the zinc chromium ferrite magnetic nanoparticles ZnCrFeO4 are synthesized via sol-gel method and characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The XRD analysis showed that ZnCrFeO4 has single-phase cubic structure. The synthesized ZnCrFeO4 has been used as an efficient catalyst for acetyl...

Allylic and benzylic alcohols are converted into corresponding unsymmetrical ethers when reacted with various orthoesters in the presence of montmorillonite KSF at ambient temperature. A detailed study has been undertaken to examine the mechanism and generality of these reactions with regard to various acidic catalysts, which reveal interesting competitive reactions mainly O-acetylation, togeth...
