Herein a transition-metal catalyst system for the selective synthesis of cyclic and linear acetals from the combined utilization of carbon dioxide, molecular hydrogen, and biomass derived diols is presented. Detailed investigations on the substrate scope enabled the selectivity of the reaction to be largely guided and demonstrated the possibility of integrating a broad variety of substrate molecules. This approach allowed a change between the favored formation of cyclic acetals and linear acetals, originating from the bridging of two diols with a carbon-dioxide based methylene unit. This new synthesis option paves the way to novel fuels, solvents, or polymer building blocks, by the recently established “bio-hybrid” approach of integrating renewable energy, carbon dioxide, and biomass in a direct catalytic transformation.
Alkoxyl radicals from alcohols I. The hypoiodite reaction of cyclopentanol: Evidence for sequential rather than competitive reaction pathways

The representative photostimulated hypoiodite reaction of cyclopentanol with mercury(II) oxide and iodine gives products formed by a sequence of iodoaldehyde formation, followed by consumption to give Baeyer-Villiger and hydrolysis products.
