Abstract

1-Methylimidazolium hydrogensulfate, [Hmim] [HSO4], a Brønsted acidic room temperature ionic liquid, is used as a catalyst and reaction medium for facile and ecofriendly deprotection of methoxymethyl (MOM) and ethoxymethyl (EOM) ethers to their corresponding alcohols under thermal conditions (Δ) and microwave irradiation (MW). Furthermore, one-pot interconversion to the respective acetates and trimethylsilyl (TMS) ethers was also achieved.
