K. Nishide et al., A NEW ENTRY FOR THE DEPROTECTION OF MONOTHIOACETALS AND DITHIOACETALS- SILVER NITRITE IODINE SYSTEM, Tetrahedron letters, 34(21), 1993, pp. 3425-3428
A new reagent system (silver nitrite-iodine) was developed for demothi
oacetalization and dedithioacetalization reactions. The reaction using
this reagent afforded the parent carbonyl compound in excellent yield
under mild conditions.
