Simple organic acids like 2,4-dinitrobenzenesulfonic acid (DNBSA) catalyze the Ritter reaction of secondary benzylic alcohols giving rise to the corresponding N-benzylacetamides in usually high yields. Reactions can be conducted without exclusion of oxygen and without the need of dry solvents. With tertiary α,α-dimethylbenzylic alcohols a different pathway involving a formal dimerization reaction takes place under the acid-catalytic conditions used. Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, 2007.

Indium(III) bromide catalyzes the dimerization of α-substituted vinylarenes. Chemioselectivity towards open chain or cyclic dimers depends on the nature of the substituent at the aryl group of the vinylarene.
