Abstract
Gadolinium triflate immobilized in room temperature ionic liquids (RTIL) 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate ([bmim][BF 4 ]) and 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate ([bmim][PF 6 ]) was found to be a recyclable and green catalyst for acetylation of a variety of alcohols, phenols and amines. Acetylation reactions using acetic anhydride (Ac 2 O) as the reagent proceeded in excellent yields in the presence of catalytic amounts (0.2-0.5 mol%) of Gd(OTf) 3 immobilized in RTILs, at ambient temperature. In addition, the catalyst system Gd(OTf) 3 /[bmim][X] can be recovered and reused efficiently in these transformations.
