A series of trityl-based photolabile hydroxyl protecting groups have been examined. These PPGs evolve from the traditional acid-labile trityl protecting group with proper electron-donating substituents. Structure-reactivity relationships have been explored. A m-dimethylamino group is crucial to achieve high photochemical deprotection efficiency. The o-hydroxyl group in 8 greatly improves the yield of the photochemical deprotection reaction, compared with the corresponding o-methoxyl-substituted counterpart 7. However, comparison between the photoreactions of 9 and 11 does not show similar structural relevance. The PPG in ether 1 (i.e., DMATr group) is structurally simple and easy to prepare and install. Its deprotection can be successfully carried out with irradiation of sunlight without requirement of photochemical devices.
