Abstract

A new type of amino-protecting group is described in which a Michael acceptor is incorporated into the protectant so that treatment with a nucleophile will trigger deblocking. Comparison of various Michael acceptors showed that for several key electron-withdrawing groups, the order of reactivity was C6H5SO2> Me3CSO2> COOEt> C6H5SO> C6H4NO2-p. The reactivity of the nucleophile (eg, primary and secondary aliphatic amines) followed an ...
