Indium(III)trifluoromethanesulfonate as a mild, efficient catalyst for the formation of acetals and ketals in the presence of acid sensitive functional groups
摘要:
Aldehydes and ketones, including acetophenone and benzophenone, are readily protected under mild, neutral conditions in the presence of various alcohols or orthoformates and catalytic amounts of indium(III) trifluoromethanesulfonate (<0.8 mol %) under either room temperature or mild heating conditions to give the corresponding cyclic and acyclic acetals and ketals in good to excellent yields. Acid sensitive functional groups, N-Boc, THP, and TBDMS do not undergo competitive deprotection under the reported conditions. (C) 2008 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
