The theoretical study focused on the possible use of low-molecular-weight mono-as well as multifunctional terminal alkynes as catalysts for two reactions, which are known to be typically acid catalyzed - acetalization and esterification, is presented in this study. Multifunctional terminal alkynes [(diethynylbenzenes, triethynylbenzene, and tetrakis(4-ethynylphenyl)methane]were significantly more active than the monofunctional ones (cyclopropylacetylene, phenylacetylene, 3-cyclohexylprop-1-yne, 1-ethynyl-2-fluorobenzene, 1-ethynyl-4-fluorobenzene, 4-ethynyltoluene, 4-tert-butylphenylacetylene, and 2-ethynyl-α,α,α-trifluorotoluene), this fact can be partly explained by the higher amount of ethynyl groups per alkyne molecule. We confirmed that terminal ethynyl groups in low-molecular-weight alkynes can successfully act as acid catalytic centers for acetalization as well as for esterification.

Heterogeneous catalysts based on materials with permanent porosity are of great interest owing to their high specific surface area, easy separation, recovery, and recycling ability. Additionally, porous polymer catalysts (PPCs) allow us to tune catalytic activity by introducing various functional centres. This study reports the preparation of PPCs with a permanent micro/mesoporous texture and a specific surface area SBET of up to 1000 m2 g?1 active in acid-catalyzed reactions, namely aldehyde and ketone acetalization and carboxylic acid esterification. These PPC-type conjugated hyper-cross-linked polyarylacetylene networks were prepared by chain-growth homopolymerization of 1,4-diethynylbenzene, 1,3,5-triethynylbenzene and tetrakis(4-ethynylphenyl)methane. However, only some ethynyl groups of the monomers (from 58 to 80 %) were polymerized into the polyacetylene network segments while the other ethynyl groups remained unreacted. Depending on the number of ethynyl groups per monomer molecule and the covalent structure of the monomer, PPCs were decorated with unreacted ethynyl groups from 3.2 to 6.7 mmol g?1. The hydrogen atoms of the unreacted ethynyl groups served as acid catalytic centres of the aforementioned organic reactions. To the best of our knowledge, this is first study describing the high activity of hydrogen atoms of ethynyl groups in acid-catalyzed reactions.

Propylphosphonic anhydride (T3P), a low toxic peptide coupling agent, has been demonstrated to be an efficient catalyst for the chemoselective acetalization and thioacetalization of aldehydes in the presence of ketones. Cyclic and acyclic acetals of diverse aldehydes were obtained in good to excellent yields at room temperature in the presence of a catalytic amount of T3P.
