Abstract

Abstract Herein, we want to report a simple and convenient way for protection-deprotection of alcohols in the presence of ammonium decatungstocerate (IV){(NH 4) 8 [CeW 10 O 36]· 20H 2 O} as catalyst under ambient temperature in CH 3 CN. Using 0.002 mmol of the catalyst, various alcohols and phenols were transformed easily to the corresponding TMS ethers in excellent yields. In the second part, various TMS ethers were successfully ...
