Abstract

Abstract A simple procedure for the monotetrahydropyranylation of diols and alcohols, in excellent to moderate yields, has been reported using a catalytic amount of the acidic ionic liquid, 1??butyl??3??methylimidazolium hydrogensulphate (bmim) HSO4 under microwave and ultrasonic irradiation. Results have been compared with those obtained by reactions in the absence of these energies, and effectiveness of the recycled ionic liquid has also been ...
