Abstract para-Methoxyphenyl (PMP) ether is a very convenient protecting group for the alcohol function; however, its cleavage requires strong oxidative conditions. In this field, the use of powerful ceric ammonium nitrate has been widely described, despite the fact that its strong nature results in the formation of degradation products in acid-or oxidation-sensitive substrates. In this paper, a new anodic oxidation method for the cleavage of para- ...
