Environmentally benign decarboxylative: N-, O-, and S-Acetylations and acylations

An operationally simple and general method for acetylation and acylation of a wide variety of substrates (amines, alcohols, phenols, thiols, and hydrazones) has been reported. Meldrum's acid and its derivatives have been used as an air-stable, non-volatile, cost-effective, and easy to handle acetylating/acylating agent. Easily separable byproducts (CO2 and acetone) allowed the isolation of analytically pure acetylated products without the requirement of work-up and any chromatography. This journal is

A facile one-step conversion of aromatic aldehydes to acetates

Aromatic aldehydes are efficiently converted to the corresponding benzyl acetates with acetic anhydride and zinc in the presence of acidic aluminium oxide in dichloromethane at room temperature.
