Allyloxycarbonyl

Allylamines are difficult to cleave with Pd catalysts. Therefore, amines are protected as carbamates, but not as allylamines. Also, allyl ethers used for the protection of alcohols cannot be cleaved smoothly, hence alcohols are protected as carbonates. In other words, amines and alcohols are protected by an allyloxycarbonyl (AOC or Alloc) group. 

PdCl2(Ph3P)2, dimedone, THF, 95% yield. This method is also effective for removing the allyloxycarbonyl group from alcohols and amines.

The selectivity and mildness of the Pd(0)-catalyzed deprotection of allyl (All) esters and the allyloxycarbonyl (Aloe) urethanes117 181 reaction also allowed for the successful and efficient application of this blocking group technology in the synthesis of acid- and base-labile lipidated pepti-... 

The combination of the N-terminal allyloxycarbonyl (Aloe) group (34) with the tert-butyl ester proved to be a particularly efficient tool in the synthesis of complex glycopeptides, as has been demonstrated in the synthesis of sensitive fucosyl chitobiose glycopeptides (19). The Aloe group was...
