Abstract

Selective protection and deprotection of functional groups is an art and challenge in the synthesis of complex organic molecules. Of the various kinds of protections available for alcohols/phenols, 1 and 2 ethers are widely preferred owing to their stability towards nucleophiles and bases. A number of reagents are used to cleave primary alkyl aryl ethers such as BBr 3 , 3 EtSNa/DMF, 4 TMSI 5 and BCl 3 /n-Bu 4 NI. 6 Although simple alkyl groups serve as ...
