Abstract
The efficient, simple and environmentally friendly synthesis of pentaerythritol diacetals and diketals using SO3H-functionalized ionic liquids (ILs) as catalysts was reported. The ILs showed high catalytic activities and reusabilities with good to excellent yields of the desired products. H0 (Hammett function) values and the minimum-energy geometries of SO3H-functionalized ILs were determined and the results revealed that the acidities and catalytic activities of ILs in acetalization were related to their structures. The IL [PSPy][OTf] with the shortest H-O bond distance had the strongest acidity and the highest catalytic activity in the synthesis of pentaerythritol diacetals and diketals.
