An integral part of modern organocatalysis is the development and application of thiourea catalysts. Here, as part of our program aimed at developing cyclopropenium catalysts, the synthesis of a thiourea-cyclopropenium organocatalyst with both cationic hydrogen-bond donor and electrostatic character is reported. The utility of the this thiourea organocatalyst is showcased in pyranylation reactions employing phenols, primary, secondary, and tertiary alcohols under operationally simple and mild reaction conditions for a broad substrate scope. The addition of benzoic acid as a co-catalyst facilitating cooperative Br?nsted acid catalysis was found to be valuable for reactions involving phenols and higher substituted alcohols. Mechanistic investigations, including kinetic and 1H NMR binding studies in conjunction with density function theory calculations, are described that collectively support a Br?nsted acid mode of catalysis.

A new glucose derived magnetic solid acid catalyst (Glu-Fe3O4-SO3H) was synthesized in a convenient and ecofriendly manner and well characterized using FTIR, PXRD, EDAX, SEM, and XPS which showed the presence of Fe3/
Direct glycosylation of unprotected and unactivated carbohydrates under mild conditions

Ligand exchange acetalization of acetals in the presence of catalytic amounts of mandelic acid and titanium tert-butoxide is reported. This transformation is successfully extended to glycosylation of unprotected and unactivated pentoses. Even unreactive pentoses such as d-arabinose or d-lyxose can be transformed by this new methodology into corresponding isopropyl glycosides.
