Abstract

P2O5/Al2O3, an easily handled recyclable catalyst, has been used in an eco-friendly and mild procedure for trimethylsilyl protection of alcohols by use of hexamethyldisilazane. Solvent-free, ambient reaction conditions, easy work-up, short reaction times, excellent yields and reusability of the catalyst are noticeable features of this method.
