Abstract
The selective cleavage of the PMB (4-methoxybenzyl) group in the presence of the NAP (2-naphthylmethyl) group was achieved using CAN with a range of mono-saccharides. The NAP group can then be removed selectively in the presence of a benzyl group using DDQ. This provides a strategy for sequential deprotection of hydroxyl groups.
