An efficient protocol for solvent-free chemoselective tetrahydropyranylation/depyranylation of alcohols and phenols is reported herein using mesoporous Phenolsulfonic Acid Formaldehyde Resins as a heterogeneous acid catalyst. The catalyst successfully performed chemoselective protection and deprotection reactions of a wide range of substrates ranging from primary to secondary and tertiary alcohols and also phenols. The reactions were carried out at ambient temperature under solvent-free condition (SolFC) which resulted in high yields within a very short time. FT-IR, TEM, SEM, EDS and TG-DSC analysis techniques were employed to characterize the synthesized polymeric catalyst. The chemoselective nature of our method was confirmed using 13C DEPT-135 NMR studies. The polymer catalyst was found to be recoverable even after 10th catalytic cycle without much depreciation in its activity. The heterogeneity of the catalyst was verified by hot filtration method. Good yield, energy and cost- effective method, solvent-free protocol, mild reaction conditions, no inert atmosphere, metal-free heterogeneous polymer catalyst and excellent recoverability of the catalyst are notable milestones of the reported protocol.

An integral part of modern organocatalysis is the development and application of thiourea catalysts. Here, as part of our program aimed at developing cyclopropenium catalysts, the synthesis of a thiourea-cyclopropenium organocatalyst with both cationic hydrogen-bond donor and electrostatic character is reported. The utility of the this thiourea organocatalyst is showcased in pyranylation reactions employing phenols, primary, secondary, and tertiary alcohols under operationally simple and mild reaction conditions for a broad substrate scope. The addition of benzoic acid as a co-catalyst facilitating cooperative Br?nsted acid catalysis was found to be valuable for reactions involving phenols and higher substituted alcohols. Mechanistic investigations, including kinetic and 1H NMR binding studies in conjunction with density function theory calculations, are described that collectively support a Br?nsted acid mode of catalysis.

An aprotic imidazole based zwitterionic-salt, 4-(3-methylimidazolium)-butane sulfonate has been found to be an efficient organocatalyst for tetrahydropyranylation by the reaction of 3,4-dihydro-2H-pyran (DHP) and different aliphatic alcohols as well as various phenolic compounds. The notable advantages of the present method are general applicability to various alcohols, clean reaction, production of no hazardous waste, open air reaction conditions and high yields. The catalyst can be reused without the loss of significant catalytic activity.
