Purpose

2-Methyl-2-ethyl-1,3-dioxolane (MED) is mainly used as an acetalization exchange reagent in organic synthesis to transform the aldehyde and ketone functional groups in the substrate molecule. Become ethylene glycol�Acetal or ketal.

The acetal exchange reaction between MED and aldehydes occurs in the presence of acid catalyst to generate new ethylene glycol acetal. p-Toluenesulfonic acid or camphorsulfonic acid are the most commonly used catalysts for this reaction. Compared with directly using ethylene glycol to heat dehydration under acidic conditions, the reaction can be carried out under very mild conditions. In most cases, it can be completed by stirring at room temperature for several hours, which is very important for substrates with acid-sensitive functional groups (Formula 1)[1,2].

Under almost the same conditions, MED conveniently converts ketones into ethylene glycol ketals. CH2Cl2 or benzene are the most commonly used reaction solvents, and tertiary alcohols with high acid sensitivity are not significantly affected under these conditions (Formula 2)[3,4]. This reaction can also use excess MED as the reaction solvent (Formula 3)[5]. The recommended method is to use excess MED and add a small amount of ethylene glycol as a catalyst to obtain a better yield (Formula 4)[6,7].

With dimethyl-1, Compared with 3-dioxolane, MED has higher regioselectivity in the reaction with substrates containing multiple ketone functional groups. The influence of the structure of the substrate on selectivity mainly comes from the influence of steric hindrance of the ketone functional group. Six-membered rings are preferred to five-membered rings (Formula 5)[8,9], and smaller steric hindrances are preferred to larger steric hindrances (Formula 6)[10,11].
