Silver(I)-Catalyzed Reductive Cross-Coupling of Aldehydes to Structurally Diverse Cyclic and Acyclic Ethers

A range of medium-sized cyclic ethers (5 to 11 membered) have been effectively synthesized through intramolecular reductive coupling of dialdehydes initiated by 50 ppm to 0.5% of AgNTf2 with hydrosilane at 25 °C. The catalytic system is also suitable for the coupling of two different monoaldehydes to provide unsymmetrical ethers. This protocol features broad functional group compatibility, high product diversity, high efficiency, and utility in the late-stage modification of complex biorelevant molecules.

Application of Yttrium Iron Garnet as a Powerful and Recyclable Nanocatalyst for One-Pot Synthesis of Pyrano[2,3-c]pyrazole Derivatives under Solvent-Free Conditions

The application of yttrium iron garnet (YIG) superparamagnetic nanoparticles as a new recyclable and highly efficient heterogeneous magnetic catalyst for one-pot synthesis of pyrano[2,3-c]pyrazole derivatives under solvent-free conditions, as well as etherification and esterification reactions are described. The advantages of the proposed method include the lack of organic solvents, clean reaction, rapid removal of the catalyst, short reaction times, excellent yields, and recyclability of the catalyst.

Synthesis of ethers from carbonyl compounds by reductive etherification catalyzed by iron(III) and silyl chloride

A simple iron- and silyl chloride catalyzed method for the preparation of symmetrical and nonsymmetrical ethers is presented. Various aldehydes and ketones were reductively etherified by using triethylsilane as a reducing agent in the presence of 2 mol% of iron(III) oxo acetate and 8 mol% of chloro(trimethyl)silane. The reactions can be carried out at ambient temperatures and pressures with ethyl acetate as the solvent.

Reductive coupling reaction of aldehydes using indium(III) triflate as the catalyst

A reductive coupling reaction was effectively developed to convert an aldehyde to its symmetrical ether. The successful reactions required Et 3SiH and CH2Cl2 as the suitable solvent in the presence of a catalytic amount of In(OTf)3. Various aldehydes were subjected to the method, and each afforded the expected ethers in good to excellent yields.

Photolytic decomposition of dibenzylic sulfites

The photolytic decay of a library of para-substituted dibenzylic sulfites has been evaluated by UV radiation in a Srinivasan-Griffin-Rayonet photochemical reactor in various deuterated solvents. The decay for each dibenzylic sulfite was examined with respect to Swain and Lupton's field constant, F. The rate of photolytic decay varies depending on the identity of the benzyl substituents. Furthermore, it has been observed that the solvent affects both the rate of sulfite photolytic decay as well as final product distribution.

Silica chloride and boron sulfonic acid as solid acid catalysts in preparation of ethers and esters under solvent-free condition

Boron sulfonic acid was easily prepared from the reaction of boric acid and chlorosulfonic acid under solvent free condition. The prepared solid acid was supported on silica gel by simple grinding and used as efficient solid acid catalyst in the preparation of ethers from the aliphatic and aromatic alcohols. The ethers were prepared in high isolated yields and in lesser times. Silica chloride was prepared by refluxing of silica gel in thionyl chloride. The obtained solid acid was efficiently used for the conditions of alcohols to the corresponding ethers and acetyl esters in less reaction time and in high isolated yields.
