A convenient deprotection of 1,3-dithiane derivatives with ferric nitrate under heterogeneous conditions

Article abstract of DOI:10.1080/00397919708006089

1,3-Dithianes derived from aromatic, aliphatic, and alicyclic ketones or aldehydes can be conveniently converted to the parent carbonyl compounds with a combination of ferric nitrate and silica gel in hexane in excellent to quantitative yields.
