Light as an external trigger is a valuable and easily controllable tool for directing chemical reactions with high spatial and temporal accuracy. Two o-nitrobenzyl derivatives, benzoyl- and thiophenyl-NPPOC, undergo photo-deprotection with significantly improved efficiency over that of the commonly used NPPOC group. The two- and twelvefold increase in photo-deprotection efficiency was proven us...

Deprotection of an N(α)-Fmoc-protected glycocysteine derivative 7 with an excess of morpholine unexpectedly led to the fluorenylmethyl-protected thioether 8 in high yield. The suggested mechanism for this reaction comprises the addition of the cysteine thiolate on the exocyclic double bond of dibenzofulvene, which is formed during Fmoc deprotection. The influence of base concentration on this t...

in multi-step organic syntheses, the protection and deprotection of tetrahydropyranyl (thp) ethers is one of the most frequently used methods. over the years, different methods have been used from various catalytic systems for the protection of hydroxyl groups as thp ethers and their deprotection. herein we have reported that various alcohols and phenols have been efficiently converted to the c...

The facile deprotection of methylene acetal protection of diols under mild conditions is established. The combination of trimethylsilyl triflate (TMSOTf) and 2,2'-bipyridyl followed by a weakly acidic hydrolysis was effective and the substrates having acid sensitive functional groups can be tolerated under the stated conditions. The selective deprotection between methylene acetal and benzopheno...

The deprotection of the chiral N-sulfonyl aziridines 1-3 has been studied under different desulfonylation conditions. Two methods for the efficient deprotection of 2-benzyl-, 2-phenyl-, and 2-carboxyl-N-sulfonylaziridines were found. The desulfonylation with lithium and a catalytic amount of di-tert-butyl biphenyl in THF at -78 °C led to the corresponding NH aziridines with yields up to 85%. Al...

The adsorption and subsequent thermal chemistry of the acetyl-protected manganese porphyrin, [SAc](4)P-Mn(III)Cl on Ag(100) have been studied by high resolution XPS and temperature-programmed desorption. The deprotection event, leading to formation of the covalently bound thioporphyrin, has been characterized and the conditions necessary for removal of the axial chlorine ligand have been determ...
