A catalytic method for chemoselective detritylation of 5′-tritylated nucleosides under mild and heterogeneous conditions using silica sulfuric acid as a recyclable catalyst

A rapid, mild and highly efficient procedure for the chemoselective deprotection of triphenylmethyl (trityl, Tr), p-anisyldiphenylmethyl (monomethoxytrityl, MMT) and di-(p-anisyl)phenylmethyl (dimethoxytrityl, DMT) groups from nucleoside trityl ethers has been established.
