Abstract

Abstract Chemoselective trimethylsilylation and tetrahydropyranylation of benzylic and primary and secondary aliphatic alcohols proceed efficiently in the presence of 1, 3-dibromo- 5, 5-dimethylhydantoin (DBH) under mild and completely heterogeneous reaction conditions in excellent yields.
