Abstract
Carboxylic acids are regenerated from their 2,2,2,-trichloroethyl este rs by treatment with sodium telluride in dimethylformamide in smooth c onditions and with good yields. The reaction conditions are compatible with other functional and protective groups such as methyl ester, ace tate or tert-butyldimethylsilyl ethers.
