Abstract
Tetrabutylammonium bromide in the molten state has been demonstrated to be a very efficient catalyst and reaction medium for the highly chemoselective dithioacetalization and oxathioacetalization of aldehydes. The tetrabutylammonium bromide is recycled for subsequent reactions.https://doi.org/10.1071/CH03318
