A mild and efficient method has been developed for the preparation of acylals from aldehydes catalyzed by antimony trichloride under solvent-free conditions in very good to excellent yields. The easy availability, low cost, and ease of handling of the catalyst make this procedure especially attractive for large-scale synthesis.

Antimony trichloride has been found to be an efficient and expedient catalyst for the acylation of alcohols, phenols, amines, and sugars with acetic anhydride in high yields and in a short reaction time under solvent-free conditions at room temperature. Also, racemization of chiral alcohols and epimerization of sugars were not observed in any of the substrates.

Utilizing bakers{\textquoteright} yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) as a biocatalyst, synthesis of -aminophosphonates in one pot has been accomplished by the three-component reaction of an aldehyde, an amine, and diethyl phosphite in moderate to good yields under solvent-free reaction conditions.
