1-Diphenylphosphinonaphthyl-8-triphenylstibonium triflate ([2][OTf]) was prepared in excellent yield by treating 1-lithio-8-diphenylphosphinonaphthalene with dibromotriphenylstiborane followed by halide abstraction with AgOTf. This antimony(v) cation was found to be stable toward oxygen and water, and exhibited exceptional Lewis acidity. The Lewis acidity of [2][OTf] was exploited in the catalytic reductive coupling of a variety of aldehydes into symmetric ethers of type L in good to excellent yields under mild conditions using Et3SiH as the reductant. Additionally, [2][OTf] was found to selectively catalyze the Aldol condensation reaction to afford α-β unsaturated aldehydes (M) when aldehydes with 2 α-hydrogen atoms were used. Finally, [2][OTf] catalyzed the cyclotrimerization of aliphatic and aromatic aldehydes to afford the industrially-useful 1,3,5 trioxanes (N) in good yields, and with great selectivity. This phosphine-stibonium motif represents one of the first catalytic systems of its kind that is able to catalyze these reactions with aldehydes in a controlled, efficient manner. The mechanism of these processes has been explored both experimentally and theoretically. In all cases the Lewis acidic nature of the antimony(v) cation was found to promote these reactions.

Highly efficient metal-free reductive coupling reactions of aldehydes and ketones with a range of nucleophiles in the presence of triflic acid (1-5 mol %) as the catalyst are presented. The reactions can be performed at ambient temperature without exclusion of moisture or air. A range of symmetrical and unsymmetrical ethers were obtained by this method in high yields and short reaction times. For the first time, the influence of additional functionalization has been studied. Furthermore, the formation of thioethers from ketones (by addition of unmodified thiols) and of sulfonamides from either aldehydes or ketones has been achieved under catalytic conditions.
