Abstract
Diesters of geminal diols (R-CH(O-CO-R')2, RR'C(OCOR″)2, etc. with R = H, aryl or alkyl) are termed acylals according to IUPAC recommendations (Rule P-65.6.3.6 Acylals) if the acids involved are carboxylic acids. Similar condensation products can be obtained from various other acidic structures as well, but these related "non-classical acylals", as one might call them, differ in various aspects from classical acylals and will not be discussed in this article. Carboxylic acid diesters of geminal diols play a prominent role in organic chemistry, not only in their application as protective groups for aldehydes and ketones but also as precursors in the total synthesis of natural compounds and in a variety of organic reactions. What is more, acylals are useful as a key structural motif in clinically validated prodrug approaches. In this review, we summarise the syntheses and chemical properties of such classical acylals and show what potentially under-explored possibilities exist in the field of drug design, especially prodrugs, and classify this functional group in medicinal chemistry.

Abstract
A one-pot, sequential three-component reaction between salicylaldehyde, indole, and 2-bromoprop-2-ene-1-sulfonyl fluoride (BPESF) has been demonstrated for the synthesis of sulfonyl fluoride substituted 4H-chromene derivatives in moderate to excellent yields (45%-94%). This one-pot sequential method features easily available starting materials, wide substrate scope, mild conditions, and great efficiency.

Abstract
We report a palladium-catalyzed intramolecular direct heteroarylation of oxazole tethered β-naphthols to access corresponding tetracyclic 4H-benzo[5,6]chromeno[3,4-d]oxazoles. Various functional groups are well tolerated and furnished the desired products in good to excellent yields under the present reaction conditions. The scale-up reaction and synthetic utility of the resulting molecules have been demonstrated. Moreover, UV/vis absorption and fluorescence emission properties have been evaluated for these polyheterocyclic compounds.
