- Evaluation of 2-(piperidine-1-yl)-ethyl (PIP) as a protecting group for phenols: Stability to ortho-lithiation conditions and boiling concentrated hydrobromic acid, orthogonality with most common protecting group classes, and deprotection via Cope elimination or by mild Lewis acids
-
A new protecting group, 2-(piperidine-1-yl)-ethyl (PIP), was evaluated as a protecting group for phenols. The PIP group was stable to ortho-lithiation conditions and refluxing with concentrated hydrobromic acid. Deprotection was accomplished by two routes, oxidation to N-oxides followed by Cope elimination (CE) and subsequent hydrolysis or ozonolysis of the vinyl ether or one-step deprotection by BBr3?Me2S. The PIP group is orthogonal to the O-benzyl, O-acetyl, O-t-butyldiphenylsilyl, O-methyl, O-p-methoxybenzyl, O-allyl, O-tetrahydropyranyl and N-t-butoxy carbonyl groups. The CE step was systematically studied and was found to give higher yields when the reaction was performed in the presence of silylating agents.

- Nickel-catalyzed removal of alkene protecting group of phenols, alcohols via chain walking process
-
An efficient nickel-catalyzed removal of alkene protection group under mild condition with high functional group tolerance through chain walking process has been established. Not only phenolic ethers, but also alcoholic ethers can be tolerated with the retention of stereocenter adjacent to hydroxyl group. The new reaction brings the homoallyl group into a start of new type of protecting group.
