A Simple and Practical Method for Large-Scale Acetylation of Alcohols and Diols Using Bismuth Triflate

Abstract
A practical method for large-scale acetylation of 1° and 2° alcohols as well as diols has been developed. The acetylation proceeds smoothly in MeCN with as little as 0.1 mol% bismuth triflate in good yields.
