Highly efficient acetalization of carbonyl compounds catalyzed by anilin-aldehyde resin salts

A mild procedures for the syntheses of ethylene acetals and dimethyl acetals from the corresponding aldehydes and ketones catalyzed by 1mol% of anilinealdehyde resin salts are described. This method is also useful for the synthesis of dimethyl acetals of diaryl ketones.

A green procedure for the protection of carbonyl compounds catalyzed by iodine in ionic liquid

Aldehydes and ketones are protected with ethylene glycol in the presence of a catalytic amount of iodine in PEG ionic liquid (IL 400) under mild conditions to afford the corresponding ketals in good yields. The recovery of iodine is facilitated by the ionic liquid. The recovered catalyst was reused six times with consistent activity.

Palladium-catalysed direct regioselective synthesis of cyclic ketals from electron-rich olefins and aryl bromides in ionic liquids

The Heck reaction comprises one of the most important carbon-carbon coupling reactions in organic synthesis. The popularity of the reaction is attributable to the broad availability of aryl halides and to the tolerance of the reaction for a wide variety o
