Abstract
diphenyl-t-butoxysilyl (i.e. DPTBOS) derivatives of alcohols are selec tively cleaved by nonahydrated sodium sulphide in ethanol, the order o f reactivity being: primary approximate to secondary>>tertiary. The co rresponding t-butyldimethylsilyl and diphenyl-t-butylsilyl derivatives remain unaffected in these conditions.
