Aromatic methoxymethyl (MOM) ethers behave differently from aliphatic MOM ethers upon treatment with trialkylsilyl triflate (R<sub>3</sub>SiOTf) and 2,2'-bipyridyl. The aromatic MOM ethers are first converted to silyl ethers and subsequently deprotected by hydrolysis to give the mother alcohols when the R<sub>3</sub>SiOTf used is trimethylsilyl triflate (TMSOTf). Conversely, direct conversion of aromatic MOM ethers to aromatic triethylsilyl (TES) ethers is possible when the R<sub>3</sub>SiOTf us ...[more]
