Direct thioesterification of carboxylic acids with thiols using nontoxic activation agents is highly desirable. Herein, an efficient and practical protocol using safe and inexpensive industrial waste polymethylhydrosiloxane as the activation agent and K3PO4 with 18-crown-6 as a catalyst is described. Various functional groups on carboxylic acid and thiol substituents can be tolerated by the present system to afford thioesters in yields of 19-100%.
Poly(N-vinylimidazole) as an efficient catalyst for acetylation of alcohols, phenols, thiols and amines under solvent-free conditions

Poly(N-vinylimidazole) is able to promote instantaneous quantitative acetylation of a variety of functionalized alcohols, phenols, thiols and amines with acetic anhydride at room temperature under solvent-free conditions. This new method consistently has excellent yields and the catalyst can be reused and recovered several times. Furthermore, the reaction can even be carried out on a larger scale.

Magnesium bistrifluoromethanesulfonimide as a new and efficient acylation catalyst
Chakraborti, Asit K.,Shivani

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.
