Abstract

We describe herein the use of glycerol as an efficient and a recyclable solvent in the thioacetalization of aldehydes and ketones. The catalyst-free reactions proceed easily using glycerol at 90 °C and the corresponding thioacetals were obtained in good to excellent yields. Glycerol was recovered and utilized for further thioacetalization reactions.
