Abstract
A sequential one-pot synthesis for the oxidation of primary and
secondary tert -butyldimethylsilyl (TBDMS)
ethers, using catalytic amounts of metal triflates and TEMPO in
combination with PhIO or PhI(OAc)2 in THF or acetonitrile,
is described. Acid-sensitive protecting groups such as methylidene,
isopropylidene, acetals, and Boc are unaffected under the reaction
conditions. Another feature of this procedure is its high selectivity
for TBDMS ethers over tert -butyldiphenylsilyl
ethers and of aliphatic TBDMS groups over phenolic TBDMS groups.
Key words
bismuth(III) triflate - carbonyl compounds - oxidation - silyl ethers - TEMPO

By analogy of the structure of
the precipitate formed during the hydrolysis of Bi(NTf)2 and
other salts, the structure of the hydrolysis product of Bi(OTf)3 may
be [Bi6 O4 (OH)4 ](OTf)6 ˙xH2 O
