Acyclic acetals and ketals undergo transacetalisation in the presence of catalytic quantities of indium(III) triflate (In(OTf)3) and diols or triols under solvent-free conditions to generate the corresponding cyclic acetals and ketals in excellent yield. The methodology has been further developed to encompass a tandem acetalisation-acetal exchange protocol, which provides a facile and high yielding route to cyclic ketals from unreactive ketones under very mild reaction conditions.

Carbonyl compounds were converted to the corresponding 1,3-dioxolanes and 1,3-dioxanes with ethylene glycol and 1,3-propandiol in the presence of bismuth triflate under solvent-free conditions. In addition, high chemoselective protection of aldehydes in the presence of ketones has been achieved.
Regioselective transformation of alkynes into cyclic acetals and thioacetals with a gold(I) catalyst: comparison with Br?nsted acid catalysts

Au(I) catalyzes the transformation of alkynes into cyclic acetals and thioacetals at much higher rate than Br?nsted acids. The reaction appears to be general for a range of alkynes and diols or dithiols, which are efficiently transformed with high selectivities. One of the salient features of this reaction process is the high reactivity of the enol ether or enol thioether intermediates, which undergo a rapid isomerization reaction to afford the cyclic acetals or thioacetals, so that isolation or subsequent activation processes are not required. This type of reactions allows us to synthesize a series of fragrances.
