The utility of acylals as building blocks for selective cross-benzoin synthesis was explored in this study. The synthesis of α-acetoxyketones (O-acyl cross-benzoins) was achieved via selective N-heterocyclic carbene-catalyzed cross-benzoin reactions using acylals as aldehyde equivalents. Thus, the combination of ortho-substituted phenyl acylals and aromatic/aliphatic aldehydes as coupling substrates using bicyclic triazolium salts as precatalysts and potassium carbonate as a base in THF at reflux temperature selectively yielded O-acyl cross-benzoins.

Abstract: N-propylsulfamic acid supported onto magnetic Fe3O4 nanoparticles (MNPs-PSA) was simply synthesized and used as a highly efficient, environmentally friendly, and chemoselective catalyst for the synthesis of 1,1-diacetates (acylals) from the one-pot condensation reaction of various aromatic aldehydes with acetic anhydride, in high yield of products (86–96%) and short reaction time (20–60?min) under solvent-free conditions at room temperature. In addition to these results, we further studied the possibility of deprotection of the resulting acylals into benzaldehyde derivatives in this catalytic system by the addition of water. More importantly, noteworthy advantages of this study are non-use of toxic organic solvents and catalysts, simple work-up procedure, short reaction time, high yield of products, and recovery and reusability of MNPs-PSA by an external magnet. Graphical Abstract: A simple and highly efficient procedure for the protection of various aldehydes with acetic anhydride in the presence of N-propylsulfamic acid supported onto magnetic Fe3O4 nanoparticles (MNPs-PSA) is reported. We further studied the possibility of deprotection of the resulting acylals into benzaldehyde derivatives in this catalytic system by the addition of water as a green solvent. The catalyst was reused several times without loss of its catalytic activity.

In the present study, a mild, rapid, and efficient method for the protection of aldehydes with acetic anhydride (AA) in the presence of iron zirconium phosphate (ZPFe), at room temperature is reported. Selective conversion of aldehydes was observed in the presence of ketones. Under these conditions, different aldehydes bearing electron-withdrawing and electron-donating substituents were reacted with AA and the corresponding 1,1-diacetates (acylals) were obtained in high to excellent yields. The steric and electronic properties of the different substrates had a significant influence on the reaction conditions. Also, the deprotection of 1,1-diacetates has been achieved using this catalyst in water. The catalyst was characterized by several physico-chemical techniques. It was recovered easily from the reaction mixture, regenerated, and reused at least 7 times without significant loss in catalytic activity. This protocol has the advantages of easy availability, stability, reusability of the eco-friendly catalyst, chemoselectivity, simple experimental and work-up procedure, solvent-free conditions and only a stoichiometric amount of AA is needed.
