carbohydrates containing acetal/ketal groups with the assistance of water in CH2Cl2 led to deacetalization/deketalization products in almost quantitative yields. In addition, for substrates containing both acetal/ketal and p-methoxylbenzyl groups, we also found that the p-methoxylbenzyl group was selectively cleaved by the use of a catalytic amount of SnCl4, while the acetal/ketal groups remained. Furthermore

stereoselectivities. The regioselectivity in these reactions is directed by the interaction between the Lewis acid and the most nucleophilic oxygen of the acetal, thus yielding a free 6-hydroxyl group. Finally, boranes such as BH3·NMe3 are activated by Lewis acid, which results in the borane being the most electrophilic species, and consequently the reaction shows inversed regioselectivity to give a free 4-hydroxyl
