Melamine trisulfonic acid: A new, efficient and reusable catalyst for the protection of alcohols, phenols, aldehydes and amines

Tetrahydropyranylation of alcohols and phenols, acetylation of aldehydes and N-Boc protection of amines are efficiently catalyzed by melamine trisulfonic acid (MTSA). All reactions were performed at room temperature in good to high yields.
