Untersuchungen zu Mesityldimethylhalogensilanen als Schutzgruppenreagenzien für Alkohole

Investigation on Mesityldimethylhalosilanes as Protectiv Reagents for Alcohols The use of mesityldimethylhalosilanes as protecting reagents for steroid alcohols was investigated. The resistance of the obtained silyl ethers was tested in various media. The reaction pathway of the acidic hydrolyses of the silyl ethers is explained.
