Abstract
Proton and metal ion-exchanged Montmorillonite catalyzes the
detritylation of trityl tetrazole in sartan molecules under mild
conditions in high yields. The reactions are carried out in methanol in
presence of 1 equivalents of water. Catalyst was reusable without any
appreciable loss in its catalytic activity.
Keywords: detritylation montmorillonite sartan molecules.
