Abstract
Direct conversion of alcohol silyl ethers into the corresponding diphenylmethyl (DPM) ethers can be easily performed by the reaction with diphenylmethyl formate in the presence of a catalytic amount of trimethylsilyl trifluoromethanesulfonate. By the additional use of triethylsilane, tetrahydropyranyl ethers can be also converted into the corresponding DPM ethers.
