Efficient and selective deprotection of aryl aldehyde diacetates catalyzed by tin(II) chloride dihydrate

Abstract

1223-1225A mild,efficient and excellent yield method for the selective deprotection of aryl aldehyde diacetates in the presence of .phenolic acetate and aliphatic aldehyde diacetate using catalytic amounts of tin(II) chloride dihydrate (SnCl2.2H2O) is described
