Reductive openings of cyclic acetals are widely used in modern synthetic organic chemistry for the regioselective introduction of protecting groups. A systematic study was performed on the applicability and efficacy of various hydride donor and protic or Lewis acid reagent combinations in the reductive ring opening of glucosidic 4,6-halobenzylidene acetals bearing an ortho-, meta-, and para-chloro- or -bromo substituent on the benzene ring. Most of the reagent combinations tested cleaved the 4,6-O-halobenzylidene acetal rings at O4 or O6 efficiently and with the expected regioselectivity. The LiAlH4-AlCl3 and the BH3·THF-TMSOTf combinations produced the 4-O-halobenzyl ether/6-OH products with complete regioselectivity and high yields. The use of Me3N·BH3-AlCl3 reagent system in toluene was also effective in cleaving the acetal ring at O6 but was accompanied by Al-chelation-assisted debenzylation side reactions. The NaCNBH3-HCl and the Et3SiH-BF3·Et2O combinations were highly effective in yielding the 6-halobenzyl ether/4-OH derivatives. Et3SiH, in combination with TfOH, produced the 6-O-ether/4-OH products in rapid reactions but also triggered silylation and reductive halobenzylation as secondary transformations. Reductive opening of the 1,3-dioxane ring of pyranosidic 4,6-O-halobenzylidene acetals by the proper reagent combination was found to be an efficient method for the regioselective introduction of versatile halobenzyl protecting groups onto the pyranose ring.

A new, simple protocol for the synthesis of acetals under basic conditions from non-enolizable aldehydes and alcohols has been reported. Such reactivity is facilitated by a sodium alkoxide along with a corresponding trifluoroacetate ester, utilizing formation of sodium trifluoroacetate as a driving force for acetal formation. The usefulness of this protocol is demonstrated by its orthogonality with various acid-sensitive protecting groups and by good compatibility with functional groups, delivering synthetically useful acetals complementarily to the synthesis under acidic conditions from aldehydes and alcohols.

We have systematically studied the reactions of acetalization and found that high reaction efficiency can be achieved using cheap and readily available organic Eosin Y as catalyst. The reaction proceeds smoothly under house bulbs and shows excellent functional group tolerance. The substrates of the reaction system are compatible with aromatic aldehydes, aliphatic aldehydes, aromatic ketones, and cyclic ketones with high yields.
