Niobium pentachloride is an efficient and useful Lewis acid to conduct Friedel-Crafts hydroxyalkylation between arenes and (hetero)aromatic aldehydes, to generate triarylmethanes. This practical methodology offers several advantages, such as short reaction time, mild experimental conditions, and excellent yields.

An efficient, convenient, and novel one pot approach is described for the synthesis of triarylmethanes by in situ oxidation of benzylalcohols followed by the Friedel-Crafts alkylation of di/trimethoxybenzenes in the presence of BF3·OEt2. The generality of the present method is strengthened by screening a variety of aromatic, aliphatic, and heteroaromatic alcohols with methoxy arenes. Shorter reaction time, mild reaction condition, good yields, and wide scope of substrates are the significant features of this protocol.

Triarylmethanes (TRAMs) and diarylalkanes (DIAAs) are valuable intermediates with wide applications in many fields. TRAMs are usually obtained from the acid-catalysed bisarylation of activated aryl aldehydes. However, the synthesis poses many problems, such as harsh reaction conditions, and the disposal of the excess solvents and/or toxic metal waste. In this study, some functionalized ionic liquids including Br?nsted acid ionic liquids (BAILs) and traditional ionic liquids were designed and synthesized. BAILs catalyzed Friedel-Crafts (F-C) alkylation was applied in this specific reaction for the first time. And the BAILs showed bifunctional properties acting as catalyst and solvent. Research shows that BAILs can be used for catalyzing F-C alkylations of electron-rich arenes with aromatic or aliphatic aldehydes successfully under mild reaction conditions. Furthermore, BAILs containing triflic anion has higher activity than other BAILs and traditional ionic liquids. [HSO 3-pmim][OTf] gets the highest yields in the presence of 20 mol% of BAILs at 40 °C to give the corresponding TRAMs derivatives. After five cycles, the yields remain about 93-97%. Finally, according to IR spectrum and the experimental validation, the aromatic electrophilic substitution reaction was considered to be the possible catalysis mechanisms.

Iodine is shown to be an efficient catalyst for the Friedel-Crafts alkylation of arenes with a wide variety of aldehydes in toluene under 'open-flask' and mild conditions. In the presence of 10 mol % of iodine, the reaction of arenes with aromatic aldehyd
