Abstract The Allyloxycarbonyl (Alloc) moiety can be removed smoothly and selectively in good yield (70–99%) from allylic esters, carbamates and carbonates by aqueous Pd (0) catalyzed allyl transfer to diethylamine as the accepting nucleophile. The method has been successfully used for deprotection of a wide range of secondary amines.
