Deprotection of structurally different trimethylsilyl ethers to their
corresponding alcohols has been achieved in refluxing benzene in the p
resence of tris[trinitratocerium(IV)] paraperiodte in a few minutes. T
his reagent has also been used successfuly for the direct oxidation of
trimethylsilyl ethers to their corresponding carbonyl compounds. Benz
ylic double bonds are prone to cleavage reactions with this method.
