Abstract

The deprotection of ketals and acetals, in particular the 1,3-dioxolanes, to the corresponding carbonyl compound is a transformation of considerable importance in organic synthesis. Regeneration of the aldehyde or ketone is normally accom- plished by aqueous acid hydrolysis.' In the case of compounds possessing acid-sensitive functionality, a number of alternative methods, some of which use non-aqueous conditions, have been developed. These include the use of ...
