In the future, please identify what solutions you have tried before asking for assistance on Stack Overflow.

The expression you are looking for is (<{2}\\w+>{2}) , as demonstrated here .

You would then take a substring of each match and remove the << and >> characters.

Start to end, the solution would be as follows:

 var str = 'BUILDING - WITH DELETION OF EXCLUSION (d) & (e)<<SPR2>>'; var regex = /<{2}(\\w+)>{2}/g; var matches = str.match(regex); matches.forEach(function(match) { console.log(match.substring(match.indexOf('<<') + 2, match.lastIndexOf('>>'))); });
