Ytterbium(III) Triflate-Catalyzed Conversion of Carbonyl Compounds into 1,3-Oxathiolanes in Ionic Liquids

Abstract The reaction of carbonyl compounds with 2-mercapto­ethanol to prepare 1,3-oxathiolanes has been successfully carried out in ionic liquids using ytterbium(III) triflate as a catalyst. Yields of the products are high and the catalyst can be easily recovered and reused in this reaction.
