Deprotection(Hg2+, Oxid.,

"The advantages of this method vis-a-vis the classical aldol reaction include the following:"

1) Carbonyl introduced in protected form

2) Hydroxyl can be protected or free

3) Configuration of hydroxyl defined before coupling

4) Reaction is irreversible

5) Self-condensation is avoided

Disadvantages include:

1) Nucleophilicity of sulfur occasionally problematic

2) Deprotection can be diffficult

3) Metallation of dithiane sometimes difficult
