Abstract
Tetrahydropyranyl (THP), methoxymethyl (MOM), and benzyloxymethyl (BOM) phenyl/alkyl ethers were efficiently cleaved to the corresponding parent hydroxyl compounds in good yields using catalytic amounts of Ce(SO4)2·4H2O by microwave-assisted or conventional heating in methanol solution. Intramolecular and competitive experiments demonstrated the chemoselective deprotection of THP ethers in the presence of triisopropylsilyl (TIPS) and tert-butyldiphenylsilyl (TBDPS) phenyl ethers.
