Aldosides, cyclic acetals, reactivity

In this Section, hydrolysis, acetolysis, and isomerization of acetals are considered. Selective deprotection of acetals may also be achieved through halogenation, hydrogenolysis, ozonolysis, and photolysis, but these topics, are covered in an accompanying article in this Series, on the reactivity of cyclic acetals of aldoses and aldosides,3 and will not be discussed here.
