Abstract

Protecting groups play multiple and vital roles during the synthesis of carbohydrates and other natural products. We herein report the installation and orthogonal cleavage, under mild conditions, of a 4-(tert-butyldiphenylsilyloxy)-2,2-dimethylbutanoyl (BDMB) group as a sterically hindered pivaloyl-type hydroxy protecting group. The compatibility of this substituent with the removal of other protecting groups is also investigated. Due to its advantageous properties, BDMB is anticipated to function as a valuable agent for masking hydroxy groups.
