Abstract
Both acetonyltriphenylphosphonium bromide (ATPB, 1) and poly-p-styryldiphen ylacetonylphosphonium bromide (A) were effective catalysts in the protectio n of alcohols as THP, THF, and EE ethers as well as the cleavage of THP, TH F, and EE ethers to the corresponding alcohols. They could be applied to 1 degrees, 2 degrees and 3 degrees alcohols, phenol and acid-labile alcohols. Both ATPB and catalyst A are excellent catalysts in the present study. It needed only 1x10(-2)-1.25x10(-2) mol equiv. of the polymer-supported cataly st A in the reactions. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
