Application of benzyl protecting groups in the synthesis of prenylated aromatic compounds
摘要:
Benzyl ethers have proven to be useful protecting groups for synthesis of phenols bearing isoprenoid chains because the benzyl groups can tolerate the conditions of halogen-metal exchange used to introduce the side chains yet are cleaved in good yields upon treatment with sodium s-butanol.
