Allyl deprotection

Allyl carbonate esters are also useful hydroxy-protecting groups and are introduced using allyl chloroformate. A number of Pd-based catalysts for allylic deprotection have been developed.209 They are based on a catalytic cycle in which Pd° reacts by oxidative addition and activates the allylic bond to nucleophilic substitution. Various nucleophiles are effective, including dimedone,210 pentane-2,4-dione,211 and amines.212... 

Benzoquinone 6 was reported as one of a new class of amino alcohol-derived benzoquinones tested in the palladium-catalyzed 1,4-dialkylation of 1,3 dienes. These ligands were prepared by reaction of 1 with C2-symmetric l,4-diallyloxy-2,5-benzenedicarboxylic acid chloride followed by allyl deprotection.29... 

The MALDI-TOF monitored SP preparation of lysobactin, a natural cyclopeptide antibiotic, on PS resin bearing the Rink amine linker 1.6 has been reported (141). The SPS scheme is shown in Fig. 1.21. The classical peptide coupling steps, the allyl deprotection (see Section 1.3.5), and the macrocyclization step were all monitored by MALDI-TOF, and the purity of the products was also determined using this technique. The presence of small impurities in compounds 1.56-1.61 was easily detected, and the reaction conditions for the key deprotection of 1.59 and cyclization of 1.60 were rapidly optimized. A total yield of 15% was obtained after HPLC purification of released 1.62 (lysobactin).

Hydroxylysine (328) was synthesized by chemoselective reaction of (Z)-4-acet-oxy-2-butenyl methyl carbonate (325) with two different nucleophiles first with At,(9-Boc-protected hydroxylamine (326) under neutral conditions and then with methyl (diphenylmethyleneamino)acetate (327) in the presence of BSA[202]. The primary allylic amine 331 is prepared by the highly selective monoallylation of 4,4 -dimethoxybenzhydrylamine (329). Deprotection of the allylated secondary amine 330 with 80% formic acid affords the primary ally-lamine 331. The reaction was applied to the total synthesis of gabaculine 332(203]. 

In addition to the preparation of l-alkenes, the hydrogenolysis of allylic compounds with formate is used for the protection and deprotection of carboxylic acids, alcohols, and amines as allyl derivatives (see Section 2.9). 

Another method for deallylation of ally esters is the transfer of the allyl group to reactive nucleophiles. Amines such as morpholine are used[415-417], Potassium salts of higher carboxylic acids are used as an accepter of the allyl group[418]. The method is applied to the protection and deprotection of the acid function in rather unstable /f-lactam 664[419,420]. 

This group was developed to minimize the problem of nitrogen allylation during the deprotection step, because deprotection proceeds with /3-hydride elimination. The derivative is stable to TFA and 6 N HCl. ... 

This order was chosen so that DDQ (dichlorodicyanobenzoquinone) treatment would not oxidize a deprotected allylic alcohol at C.73 and so that the C.47 hemiketal would still be protected (as the ketal) during basic hydrolysis (Step 3). 

Allyl groups are subject to oxidative deprotection with Chromiapillared Montmorillonite Clay, -BuOOH, CH2CI2, isooctane, 85% yield. Allylamines are cleaved in 84—90% yield, and allyl phenyl ethers are cleaved in 80% yield. 

Benzyltriethylammonium tetrathiomolybdate in CH3CN in 61-97% yield. Deprotection is compatible with esters such as benzyl, allyl, acetate, and -butyl esters. ... 

Pd(OAc)2, TPPTS, CH3CN, H2O, Et2NH, 30 min, 89-99% yield. Deprotection can be achieved in the presence of a prenyl or cinnamyl ester, but as the reaction times increase, these esters are also cleaved.Prenyl carbamates and allyl carbonates are cleaved similarly. 

Sml2, THE or DMPU, it, 76-94% yield. Deprotection of the pyridinesul-fonamide in the presence of a cinnamoyl group was possible when done without a proton source. BOC, A-benzyl, A-allyl, and trifluoroacetamido groups were all stable to these conditions. ... 

The aldehyde function at C-85 in 25 is unmasked by oxidative hydrolysis of the thioacetal group (I2, NaHCOs) (98 % yield), and the resulting aldehyde 26 is coupled to Z-iodoolefin 10 by a NiCh/CrCH-mediated process to afford a ca. 3 2 mixture of diaste-reoisomeric allylic alcohols 27, epimeric at C-85 (90 % yield). The low stereoselectivity of this coupling reaction is, of course, inconsequential, since the next operation involves oxidation [pyridinium dichromate (PDC)] to the corresponding enone and. olefination with methylene triphenylphosphorane to furnish the desired diene system (70-75% overall yield from dithioacetal 9). Deprotection of the C-77 primary hydroxyl group by mild acid hydrolysis (PPTS, MeOH-ClHhCh), followed by Swem oxidation, then leads to the C77-C115 aldehyde 28 in excellent overall yield. 

A novel approach to 3-substituted indolines and indoles via the anionic cyclization of 2-bromo-lV,lV-diallyanilines has been developed simultaneously by Bailey <96JOC2596> and Liebeskind <96JOC2594>. Thus, treatment of 2-bromo-lV,lV-diallylanilines 78 with 2 equivalents of BuLi at -78 °C leads to the formation of the intermediate 79 which may be trapped with an electrophile to afford 3-substituted indolines 80. Aside from ease of preparation, an additional benefit of the intramolecular carbolithiation of <7-lithio-W,Al-diallyl-anilines is the production of Al-allyl-protected indolines, which are easily deprotected using... 

The Stille reaction has been successfully applied to a number of macrocyclic ring closures.207 In a synthesis of amphidinolide A, the two major fragments were coupled via a selective Stille reaction, presumably governed by steric factors. After deprotection the ring was closed by coupling the second vinyl stannane group with an allylic acetate.208...
