Copper(II) Tetrafluoroborate-Catalyzed Formation of Aldehyde-1,1-di­acetates

Abstract

Aldehyde 1,1-diacetates are formed in excellent yields from aldehydes and acetic anhydride under solvent-free conditions at room temperature in short times in the presence of a catalytic amount of copper(II) tetrafluoroborate hydrate.
