Zirconium Tetrachloride (ZrCl4) as an Efficient and Chemoselective Catalyst for Conversion of Carbonyl Compounds to 1,3-Oxathiolanes

Publication History
Publication Date:

Different types of aldehydes and ketones can be efficiently converted into their corresponding 1,3-oxathiolanes using 2-mercaptoethanol (1.5 - 3.2 equiv.) in the presence of catalytic amount (0.04 - 0.15 equiv.) of ZrCl4 in CH2Cl2 as solvent at room temperature. Chemoselective monothioacetalization of aldehydes in the presence of ketones can also be achieved in high yield. The work-up is easy and removal of water is not necessary.
