摘要

Cobalt (II) chloride hexahydrate (CoCl2· 6H2O) has been found to catalyze the tosylation of both aliphatic and aromatic alcohols with p-toluenesulfonic acid (p-TsOH) in high yields in 1, 2-dichloroethane under reflux (ca. 80° C). In the case of aliphatic alcohols, secondary alcohols undergo tosylation chemoselectively in the presence of primary hydroxy groups.
