N-benzyl-DABCO-tribromide as an efficient and mild reagent for deprotection of dithioacetals

Abstract

N-Benzyl-DABCO-ammonium tribromide was found to be an efficient and recyclable reagent for the deprotection of dithioacetals in dichloromethane/ methanol at room temperature. The reaction can be performed cleanly, in short time, and in high yield. Copyright © Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.
