Acid liability of allylic esters: Use of methallyl esters as acid-labile protecting groups for carboxylic acids
Schmid, Christopher R.
, p. 757 - 760 (1992)
Substituted allylic esters are cleaved in refluxing 90% formic acid to afford carboxylic acids. The scope and generality of the reaction is investigated, and several examples using methallyl esters as an acid-labile protecting group for carboxylic acids are presented.
