“…Reductive etherification of carbonyl compounds with alcohols over supported catalysts with metals such as platinum, palladium, or rhodium under hydrogen pressure is an interesting protocol to produce ethers from carbonyl compounds. In this reaction acetals, hemiacetals, and/or enol ethers, the formation of which requires acid catalysis, have been suggested as possible intermediates (Scheme ), and, in some cases, an additional acid is required as cocatalyst.…”
