A series of thiolanes were prepared by cyclodehydration of sulfanylalcohols in the presence of catalytic amounts of p-toluenesulfonic acid or by using K10 clay. The sulfur heterocycles were synthesised in good to excellent yields using either a conventional Dean–Stark method or microwave irradiation under solvent-free conditions. The reaction could be performed regio- and stereoselectively and its

A process for producing cyclic acetals is described. A formaldehyde source is contacted with an aprotic compound in the presence of a catalyst to produce the cyclic acetals. The aprotic compound can increase conversion rates and/or efficiency. In one embodiment, the formaldehyde source is obtained from methanol. In particular, methanol can be converted into formaldehyde which is then converted into a cyclic acetal. In one embodiment, the cyclic acetal can then be used to produce oxymethylene polymers.

A process for producing a cyclic acetal is disclosed. According to the process, a formaldehyde source is combined with an aprotic compound and contacted with a heterogeneous catalyst which causes the formaldehyde source to convert into a cyclic acetal such as trioxane. The catalyst, for instance, may comprise a solid catalyst such as an ion exchange resin. In one embodiment, the process is used for converting anhydrous formaldehyde gas to trioxane. The anhydrous formaldehyde gas may be produced form an aqueous formaldehyde solution by an extractive distillation.

Lithiation and trapping at convenient temperatures (0/−10 °C) of five cyclicsulfides such as tetrahydrothiophene, tetrahydrothiopyrans and a thiomorpholine enables straightforward α-functionalisation. Trapping with a wide range of electrophiles generates more than 50 diverse α-substituted saturated sulfur heterocycles that are not easily synthesised by the currently available methods. TMEDA=N,N,N′
