Dimethylaminopyridine (OMAP) is a very efficient acylation catalyst (l-3) particularly for the acetylationof tertiary alcohols (1,3,4). The reaction has been interpreted by the formation of 1-acetyl pyridinium intermediate (3,4,5) and very recently Hbfle has found evidence for the presence of the 1-acetyl-4dimethylaminopyridinium acetate ion pair in solution (3). This prompts us to report our own results on themechanismof the reaction of acetic anhydride with tertbutanol in the presence of DMAP. , Since 1970 we have isolated a series of 1-acyl-4-dimethylaminopyridinium salts (6a-e) and we purpose to compare their reactivities with the DMAP-catalyzed reactions.
