Morpholinium bisulfate [morH][HSO4]-promoted O,S, and Nacylation at room temperature

Abstract

Morpholinium bisulfate morH]HSO₄] found to be highly inexpensive, efficient, and reusable catalyst to promote the acylation of phenols, thiols, alcohols, and amines in presence of acetic anhydride under solvent-free condition with excellent yields by stirring at room temperature. Present methodology deals with remarkable features of mild reaction condition, high yielding, shorter reaction time, easy workup, and more importantly, environmentally benign.
