- An efficient method to prepare aryl acetates by the carbonylation of aryl methyl ethers or phenols
-
Synthesis of valuable chemicals from lignin based compounds is critical for the application of biomass. Here, we develop a method of preparing aryl acetates by the carbonylation of aryl methyl ethers or phenols under low CO pressure. Good to excellent yields of aryl acetates were obtained using different substrates, and a possible reaction mechanism was proposed by conducting a series of control experiments. This method may provide a potential way for the utilization of lignin.

-
A wide variety of hydroxyaryl ketones bearing different motifs was successfully synthesized with good yields and excellent selectivities in the presence of HF@SiO2 as an environmental friendly acid under solvent-free condition. Mild and green reaction conditions and excellent yields (50-91%) make this method an attractive method for the efficient synthesis of hydroxyaryl ketones. Fries rearrangement of phenyl benzoate in the presence of HF@SiO2 led to p-hydroxybenzophenone, while phenyl acetate in the same conditions produced o-hydroxyacetophenone as a single isomer.

- Acyl Donors and Additives for the Biocatalytic Friedel–Crafts Acylation
-
The Friedel–Crafts acylation is a broadly applied reaction that can be conducted using various types of catalyst. However, a biocatalytic alternative has only been reported recently. In this study, the scope of acetyl donors is described, showing that, in addition to vinyl acetate derivatives, phenyl esters are also suitable donors. Furthermore, it was found that various amines enhance the reaction, whereby the effect do not seem to be correlated to the pH but to the structure of the donor. For instance, 1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane (DABCO) turned out to be a viable alternative to imidazole; however the former performed best at pH 9.85, whereas the latter performed best at pH 8.3.

- Biocatalytic Friedel–Crafts Acylation and Fries Reaction
-
The Friedel–Crafts acylation is commonly used for the synthesis of aryl ketones, and a biocatalytic version, which may benefit from the chemo- and regioselectivity of enzymes, has not yet been introduced. Described here is a bacterial acyltransferase which can catalyze Friedel–Crafts C-acylation of phenolic substrates in buffer without the need of CoA-activated reagents. Conversions reach up to >99 %, and various C- or O-acyl donors, such as DAPG or isopropenyl acetate, are accepted by this enzyme. Furthermore the enzyme enables a Fries rearrangement-like reaction of resorcinol derivatives. These findings open an avenue for the development of alternative and selective C?C bond formation methods.

Iron zirconium phosphate (ZPFe) nanoparticles were found to function as an efficient catalyst for the acetylation of a wide range of alcohols and phenols using acetic anhydride, generating good to excellent yields under solvent-free conditions. The steric and electronic properties of various substrates had a significant influence on the reaction conditions required to achieve the acetylation. The catalyst used in the current study was characterized by inductively coupled plasma-optical emission spectrometry, X-ray diffraction, N2 adsorption-desorption, scanning electron microscopy, and transmission electron microscopy. These analyses revealed that the interlayer distance in the catalyst increased from 7.5 to 9.3 ? when Fe3+ was intercalated between the layers, whereas the crystallinity of the material was reduced. This nanocatalyst could also be recovered and reused at least six times without any discernible decrease in its catalytic activity. This new method for the acetylation of alcohols and phenols has several important advantages, including mild and environmentally friendly reaction conditions, as well as good to excellent yields and a facile work-up.

The acetylation of 1° and 2° alcohols, diols, and phenols proceeded smoothly with 2.0 mol % of catalyst. However, the reaction worked well with only a few 3° alcohols. The methodology was also applicable to the synthesis of a few benzoate esters but required the use of 5.0 mol % catalyst. Aldehydes could also be converted into the corresponding 1,1-diesters (acylals) under the reaction conditions. Iron(III) tosylate is an inexpensive, and easy to handle, commercially available catalyst.

- O-acetylation: Synthesis of acetylated phenols from aryl-methyl ethers over boron alkoxides
-
A new acetylation procedure has been applied to 13 aryl-methyl ethers using boron chemistry. In this procedure, demethylation of aryl-methyl ethers and acetylation of the resulting phenols were combined into one procedure in order to shorten the number of stages and to achieve easy purification. Eleven known with/without bromine and two new [bis(3,4-diacetoxyphenyl)methanone and 5,5'-methylenebis(1,2-diacetoxy-3,4-dibromobenzene) (a natural bromophenol's acetylated derivative)] acetylated arene compounds were synthesised from their methoxy derivatives by this method. The effectiveness of the method was illustrated by producing an acetylated natural bromophenol from its methyl ether. The phenol form was obtained by hydrolysing the acetylated natural bromophenol. Thus, the advantage of this method in the natural product chemistry of phenolic compounds was confirmed.

Magnesium bistrifluoromethanesulfonimide catalyzed the acetylation of phenols, alcohols, and thiols under solvent-free conditions at room temperature and in short times. Electron-deficient and sterically hindered phenols provided excellent yields. The catalyst was found to be general for acylation with other anhydrides, such as propionic, isobutyric, pivalic, chloroacetic, and benzoic anhydrides. The rate of acylation was influenced by the electronic and steric factors associated with the anhydride. The reaction with less electrophilic anhydrides (e.g., chloroacetic and benzoic anhydrides) required higher temperature (～80 °C). Chemoselective acetylation, pivalation, and benzoylation took place with acid-sensitive alcohols without any competitive dehydration/rearrangement.

Acid-sensitive alcohols undergo acetylation with excellent chemoselectivity without competitive side reactions such as dehydration or rearrangement. The mild Lewis acid property of the catalyst enables the acetylation to be carried out with optically active substrates without any detrimental effect on the optical purity.
