Mechanistic insight into the lanthanide (iii) salt catalysed monoacylation of symmetrical diols from structural models

Abstract

Model studies are presented that suggest the mechanism of the lanthanide(III) salt catalysed mono acylation of symmetrical diols proceeds via chelation of the diol and the anhydride to the lanthanide salt, followed by an ‘intramolecular’ acyl transfer.
