A novel type of PdMC-catalyzed hydrogenation using a catalyst poison: Chemoselective inhibition of the hydrogenolysis for O-benzyl protective group by the addition …
A mild and chemoselective hydrogenation method for a variety of reducible functional groups distinguishing from aliphatic and aromatic benzyl ethers was accomplished by the addition of an appropriate nitrogen-containing base to the Pd/C-catalyzed hydrogenation system.
