We disclose a catalytic method for the enantio- and diastereoselective union of alkyl ethers and heterodienes. We demonstrate that a chiral Cu-BOX complex catalyzes the efficient oxidation of ethers into enol ethers in the presence of trityl acetate. Then, the organocopper promotes stereoselective hetero Diels-Alder reaction between the in situ generated enol ethers and β,γ-unsaturated ketoesters, allowing for rapid access to an array of dihydropyran derivatives possessing three vicinal stereogenic centers.

Abstract: A triflic acid-functionalized polyvinylpolypyrrolidone was prepared and fully characterized by FT-IR, TGA, and SEM. This super acidic solid catalyst shows high catalytic activity for selective acylation of alcohols, phenols, amines, and thiols with anhydrides under solvent-free conditions at room temperature. In addition, this method features an easy to handle solid super acid catalyst and an operationally simple procedure, affording the desired acylated products in excellent yields.

Exploring the catalytic activity of Lewis-acidic uranyl complexes in the nucleophilic acyl substitution of acid anhydrides

The catalytic activities of several uranyl complexes, such as N,N′-disalicylidene-o-phenelyenediaminato(ethanol)dioxouranium(vi) (UO2(salophen)EtOH), bis(dibenzoylmethanato)(ethanol)dioxouranium(vi) (UO2(dbm)2EtOH), pentakis(N,N-dimethylformamide)dioxouranium(vi) ([UO2(DMF)5]2+), and tetrakis(triphenylphosphine oxide)dioxouranium(vi) ([UO2(OPPh3)4]2+), were examined in the nucleophilic acyl substitution of acid anhydrides. Among them, [UO2(OPPh3)4]2+ was the most efficient to give ethyl acetate and acetic acid from acetic anhydride (Ac2O) and ethanol, and was resistant towards decomposition during the catalytic reaction. Several nucleophiles were also subjected to the catalytic acylation reaction using acetic and pivalic anhydride. Kinetic and spectroscopic studies suggested that [UO2(OPPh3)4]2+ interacts with Ac2O to form [UO2(Ac2O)(OPPh3)3]2+. Interaction of this actual catalyst with additional Ac2O determines the rate of the overall nucleophilic acyl substitution reaction.
ZnAl2O4@SiO2 nanocomposite catalyst for the acetylation of alcohols, phenols and amines with acetic anhydride under solvent-free conditions

, p. 368 - 375 (2014/04/03)
A ZnAl2O4@SiO2 nanocomposite was prepared from metal nitrates and tetraethyl orthosilicate by the sol-gel process, and characterized by X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared, transmission electron microscopy, and N2 adsorption-desorption measurements. The nanocomposite was tested as a heterogeneous catalyst for the acetylation of alcohols, phenols, and amines under solvent-free conditions. Under optimized conditions, efficient acetylation of these substrates with acetic anhydride over the ZnAl2O4@SiO2 nanocomposite was obtained. Acetylation of anilines and primary aliphatic amines proceeded rapidly at room temperature, while the reaction time was longer for the acetylation of alcohols and phenols, showing that an amine NH2 group can be selectively acetylated in the presence of alcoholic or phenolic OH groups. The catalyst can be reused without obvious loss of catalytic activity. The catalytic activity of the ZnAl2O4@SiO2 nanocomposite was higher than that of pure ZnAl2O4. The method gives high yields, and is clean, cost effective, compatible with substrates having other functional groups and it is suitable for practical organic synthesis.

LaFeO3/SiO2 nanocomposite was synthesized by the sol-gel process from metal nitrates and tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) as the SiO2 source. The nanocomposite product was characterized by XRD, FT-IR, SEM, and surface area measurements and was used as a heterogeneous catalyst for the efficient acetylation of amines, alcohols and phenols to the corresponding acetates using acetic anhydride under solvent-free conditions. Among the various substrates, acetylation of amines was preceded rapidly, so that an amine group could be selectively acetylated in the presence of alcoholic or phenolic hydroxyl groups by the appropriate choice of reaction time. The catalyst can also be reused several times without the loss of activity. In addition, the catalytic activity of the LaFeO3/SiO2 nanocomposite was higher than that of the pure LaFeO3 nanoparticles. The method is high yielding, clean, cost effective, compatible with the substrates having other functional groups and very suitable for the practical organic synthesis.
Vitamin B1 supported on silica-encapsulated γ-Fe 2O3 nanoparticles: Design, characterization and application as a greener biocatalyst for highly efficient acylation

A new magnetic catalyst was synthesized by the immobilization of vitamin B1 (thiamine hydrochloride) on the surface of silica-encapsulated γ-Fe2O3 nanoparticles. Its capability was evaluated in the acylation of alcohols and phenols with acetic anhydride under solvent-free conditions and afforded the desired products in high yield. This novel magnetic organocatalyst could be separated from the reaction vessel by use of an external magnet and recovered 5 times without a significant loss of its activity. The amount of loaded vitamin B1 on the silica-encapsulated γ-Fe2O3 was assigned by TGA and confirmed by back titration. Availability, cheapness and low toxicity are reasons associated with the utilization of vitamin B1 as a catalyst. The catalyst has been characterized by FT-IR, XRD, SEM, VSM and TG/DTA.

Zinc chloride homogeneous catalysis in the tritylation of hydroxyl- and amide-bearing molecules
Maltese, Maurizio,Vergari, Maria Cecilia,Donzello, Maria Pia
experimental part, p. 483 - 487 (2011/03/18)
A tritylation protocol based on the transfer of the triphenylmethylcarbenium ion from trityl acetate to substrates having hydroxyls, in the presence of catalytic amounts of ZnCl2, is described. The advantages of this method are broad scope, mild conditions, and easy handling. The comparison with the procedure based on the use of equimolar mixture of TrCl and ZnCl2 in the presence of TEA shows that comparable results are obtained. However, only this method allows reactions of secondary or benzylic alcohols such as oxidation or formation of symmetric ethers to be suppressed. Both procedures are successfully extended to simple and substituted amides. Irrespective of its low solubility in acetonitrile, even asparagine can be directly tritylated on its amide group.

experimental part, p. 159 - 164 (2011/12/16)
In the present work, the catalytic activity of high-valent tetraphenylporphyrinatovanadium(IV) trifluoromethanesulfonate, [V IV(TPP)(OTf)2], in the acetylation of alcohols and phenols with Ac2O is reported. This new V(IV) catalyst was used as an efficient catalyst for not only primary alcohols (benzylic and aliphatic) but also sterically-hindered secondary and tertiary alcohols with acetic anhydride and the corresponding acetates were obtained in 85-99% yield and 0.5-15 min. Acetylation of phenols with acetic anhydride was also performed to afford the desired acetates in 88-99% and 1.5-20 min. This catalyst can be reused several times without loss of its catalytic activity.

Ionization rates of para-substituted triphenylmethyl (trityl) acetates, benzoates, and para-nitrobenzoates have been determined in aqueous acetonitrile and aqueous acetone at 25 °C. Conventional and stoppedflow techniques have been used to evaluate rate constants ranging from 1.38 × 10-5 to 2.15 × 102S-1 by conductimetry and photospectrometry methods. The varying stabilities of the differently substituted tritylium ions account for a gradual change of reaction mechanism. Poorly stabilized carbocations are generated slowly by the ionization of their covalent precursors and trapped fast by water. Better stabilized carbocations are generated more rapidly and accumulate, so that ionization and trapping by water can be observed as separate steps in a single experiment. Finally, highly stabilized tritylium ions do not react with water, and only the rates of their formation could be measured. The ionization rate constants correlate linearly with Winstein's ionizing powers Y; the low slopes (0.17 + parameters is excellent for symmetrically substituted tritylium derivatives, deviations for unsymmetrically substituted systems are observed. The failing rate-equilibrium relationship between the rates of ionizations (log kion) and the stabilities of the carbocations in aqueous solution (pKR+) may be explained by the late " development of resonance between a p-amino group and the carbocationic center of the tritylium ion during the ionization process.
