Catalytic Conversion of Epoxides to 1,3-Dioxolanes with Phosphomolybdic Acid (PMA) in Solution and under Solvent-Free Conditions
The fast and efficient conversion of epoxides into 2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxolanes was studied with catalytic amounts of phosphomolybdic acid (PMA) (0.1-0.2 mol %) at room temperature in solution and under solvent-free conditions. The products were obtained in high to excellent yields within 1-2 min.
