Abstract

An efficient method was developed for the protection of alcohols as trityl ethers using triphenylmethanol in the presence of nanoporous MCM-41-SO3H as a heterogeneous catalyst under solvent-free ball-milling at room temperature. Low catalyst loading, high efficiency, reusability are among the advantages of this new solvent-free and environmentally friendly method. The deprotection of the produced trityl ethers was also efficiently achieved using the same catalyst in wet acetonitrile.
