Abstract

Some kinds of benzyl alcohols and ethers react with 1, 2-diols, such as ethylene glycol and propylene glycol, at 130–190° C to give 2-hydroxyethyl or 2-hydroxypropyl ethers. Application of this reaction to a deprotection of benzyl ether-type protecting groups, under neutral conditions, was also described.
