Indium(III) chloride efficiently catalyses the acylation of structurally diverse phenols, alcohols, thiols, and amines undersolventfree conditions. Acid sensitive alcohols are smoothly acylated without competitive side reactions. Acylation of 2-hydroxynaphthalene is carried out with carboxylic acids adopting the mixed anhydride protocol using trifluoroacetic anhydride.
