ISSUE:

Could someone tell me what p-anisaldehyde diethylacetal is used for? It seems that it is a protector of dioles, but, with what can I unprotect it, does the DIBAL-H work?

Hello forumer.

Your question is a bit confusing, however if you want to unprotect the aldehyde it is found as a diethyl acetal.

the objective is achieved by subjecting the molecule to a simple acid hydrolysis. Greetings.
