The preparation of a new polyphosphate reagent, trimethylsilyl polyphosphate (polyphosphoric acid trimethylsilyl ester) (PPSE), and its use in organic synthesis are described. PPSE is essentially aprotic and soluble in organic solvents and activates oxygen functions under mild conditions for preparative transformations. Some synthetically useful reactions promoted by PPSE are exemplified.
