Abstract

(ROAc) is even faster. However, the most sensitive dienic systems are partially destroyed. Ethyl chloroformate, on the other hand, does not react in Et 2 O ; in CH 2 Cl 2 the reaction affords, after hydrolysis, the (ROH), but again the most sensitive ethylenic systems are destroyed. ... Most of these compounds were obtained by cleavage of the crude t-butoxy ethers after a carbocupration or a Pd° assisted coupling reaction. The yield of the cleavage reaction itself is in the ...
