Dimethyl sulfoxide as a "methylene" source: Ru(ii) photo-catalysed facile synthesis of acetals from alcohols

Acetals are important molecules with versatile reactivity and uses. For the first time a simple photo-catalysed facile synthesis of formaldehyde acetals is documented herein upon the reaction of alcohols with dimethyl sulfoxide under very mild conditions in the presence of air. The reactions require only 1 mol% of RuII(bpy)3Cl2 photocatalyst under blue LED irradiation (λ = 445 nm) to give good to excellent yields of the corresponding acetal products. Here DMSO acts as a "methylene" source.

Synthesis of dithioacetals and oxathioacetals with chiral auxiliaries

One-pot synthesis of dithioacetals as well as an efficient method for oxathioacetal is reported. Additionally, some chiral auxiliaries were used to synthesize enantiomerically pure dithioacetals and oxathioacetals.

DIMETHYLBORON BROMIDE AND DIPHENYLBORON BROMIDE. ACETAL AND KETAL CLEAVAGE. CLEAVAGE OF MEM, MOM AND MTM ETHERS.

A general and efficient procedure for the cleavage of acetals and ketals by the use of dimethylboron bromide or diphenylboron bromide is described.Under similar reaction conditions, MEM, MOM and MTM ethers also react to afford the parent alcohols in excellent yields.
