α-Chymotrypsin-Induced Acetalization of Aldehydes and Ketones with Alcohols

Abstract

This is the first report of a simple and general method for acetalization­ of aldehydes via an α-chymotrypsin-induced reaction under mild conditions. A broad range of aromatic and heteroaromatic aldehydes have been acetalized under neutral conditions in good yields using a catalytic amount of chymotrypsin.

Key words

α-chymotrypsin - acetalization - biocatalysis - green chemistry
