Abstract:Among the many zinc salts that can be found, zinc acetate is one of the readily available, affordable, low-hazardous Lewis acids. It can be referred to as a multifunctional catalyst due to its unique physical and chemical properties, which show that they are effective in enabling a variety of synthetic transformations in both organic synthesis and catalysis. This review included noteworthy innovations that have been created during the past two and half decades using zinc acetate as a catalyst or reagent.
A simple, one-pot method using zinc acetate and ultrasound irradiation has been developed to synthesize xanthene derivatives from cyclic diketones and aromatic aldehydes, yielding good to excellent results.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
