Microwave-Assisted Efficient and Chemoselective Acetalization of Aldehydes with Trimethyl Orthoformate

Authors: not saved
Abstract:

Efficient and chemoselective protection of aldehydes to the corresponding dimethyl acetals have been carried out by mixture of trimethyl orthoformate and methanol in the presence of a catalytic amount of TMSCl or AlCl3 under microwave irradiation. Under these conditions, acetalization of ketones does not take place and they remain intact under reaction conditions. The results are compared with the reaction of an aldehyde with trimethyl orthoformate in the presence of a mild Lewis acid.

-Solid Lithium Perchlorate, a Highly Efficient and Chemoselective Catalyst for the Acetalyzation of Aldehydes

-A simple, efficient, and general method has been developed for the chemoselective acetalization of aldehydes with 1,3-propanediol, 1,2-ethanediol and trimethyl orthoformate in the presence of solid lithium perchlorate under solvent-free conditions. Both cyclic and acyclic acetals of aldehydes were obtained under environmentally benign conditions in good to excellent yields.

Microwave Assisted Rapid, Efficient and Chemoselective Deoxygenation of Sulfoxides to Thioethers Using Zn / AcOH on Silica Gel

Zn/AcOH on silica gel converts a range of structurally different sulfoxides to their corresponding thioethers in excellent yields under microwave irradiation. It has been found that chemoselective deoxygenation of sufoxides can be achieved in the presence of other reducible functional groups such as acetals, acids, amides,   esters, ketones and nitriles.

Microwave assisted Pd(OAc)2-catalyzed chemoselective reduction of aryl α,β-unsaturated esters with triethylsilane

< p>In this communication, we have reported that the Pd(OAc)2–Et3SiH-DMF system promotes the microwave-assisted chemoselective reduction of aryl α,β-unsaturated esters in good yields. The protocol affords a convenient reduction of aryl-conjugated double bonds even in presence of other functional groups like esters, phenols, and ethers.

An efficient and chemoselective synthesis of N-substituted 2-aminopyridines via a microwave-assisted multicomponent reaction.

A facile and selective synthesis of N-substituted 2-aminopyridines is accomplished via microwave-assisted multi-component reactions controlled by the basicity of amine and the nature of solvent. In addition, a possible mechanism accounting for the reaction was proposed.
