Abstract

TBDMS, THP, and DMT ethers are efficiently deprotected with tetrabutylammonium tribromide in methanol. The apparent order of stability of different protecting group is phenolic TBDMS> 1° OTBDPS> 2° OTBDMS> 2° OTHP> 1° OTHP> 1° OTBDMS> 1° ODMT. TBDMS ether has been cleaved selectively in the presence of isopropylidine, Bn, Ac, Bz, THP, and TBDPS groups. This method is high yielding, fast, clean, safe, cost-effective, and ...
