Abstract

Abstract Allyl (All) and Allyloxycarbonyl (Alloc) amino-acid derivatives are deprotected through palladium-catalyzed hydrostannolysis by Bu 3 SnH in a highly selective manner. Benzyl and benzyloxycarbonyl groups are stable under these conditions. Moreover the allyl and Alloc groups seem orthogonal to the t-butyl and t-butoxycarbonyl protecting groups.
