N-Bromosuccinimide (NBS) as a Powerful and Chemoselective Catalyst for Acetalization of Carbonyl Compounds under almost Neutral Reaction Conditions

All articles of this category Highly efficient and mild acetalization of various types of carbonyl compounds was achieved using NBS under almost neutral reaction conditions. Due to the neutrality of the medium this method is especially useful for the protection of acid sensitive substrates. acetals - N -bromosuccinimide - carbonyl compounds - protecting groups - catalyst
