Aniline–terephthalaldehyde resin p-toluenesulfonic acid (ATRT) salt as efficient mild polymeric solid acid catalyst

Aniline–terephthalaldehyde resin p-toluenesulfonic acid (ATRT) salt was easily prepared by the reaction of aniline with 1.25 equiv of terephthalaldehyde in the presence of 1.0 equiv of p-toluenesulfonic acid at 75 °C for 24 h in EtOH. ATRT efficiently catalyzed the tetrahydropyranylation of alcohols and deprotection of tetrahydropyranyl (THP), triethylsilyl (TES), and tert-butyldimethylsilyl (TBDMS) ethers. Deprotection of dodecyl THP ether and dodecyl TBDMS ether catalyzed by ATRT proceeded faster than those by pyridinium p-toluenesulfonate (PPTS). ATRT was reused without significant loss of activities.     

An efficient and chemoselective deprotection of tert-butyldimethylsilyl (TBDMS) ethers using tailor-made ionic liquid

Phenolic tert-butyldimethylsilyl (TBDMS) ethers can be deprotected to yield phenols in excellent yield using tailor-made ionic liquid [dihexaEGim][OMs] (dihexaEGim = dihexaethylene glycolic imidazolium salt) as an organic catalyst with alkali-metal fluoride in tert-amyl alcohol. On the contrary, all TBDMS protecting groups can be cleaved cleanly from the bis-TBDMS ether using the same reaction in CH₃CN solvent instead of tert-alcohol at 100 °C. This [dihexaEGim][OMs]/tert-amyl alcohol media system allows the highly selective phenolic deprotection reaction of various bis-TBDMS ethers containing both phenolic and aliphatic TBDMS ethers to provide the corresponding phenols in high yield.

A mild and chemoselective method for the deprotection of tert-butyldimethylsilyl (TBDMS) ethers using iron(III) tosylate as a catalyst

The most common method for the deprotection of TBDMS ethers utilizes stoichiometric amounts of tetrabutylammonium fluoride, n-Bu₄N⁺F⁻ (TBAF), which is highly corrosive and toxic. We have developed a mild and chemoselective method for the deprotection of TBDMS, TES, and TIPS ethers using iron(III) tosylate as a catalyst. Phenolic TBDMS ethers, TBDPS ethers and the BOC group are not affected under these conditions. Iron(III) tosylate is an inexpensive, commercially available, and non-corrosive reagent.

P(MeNCH2CH2)3N: an efficient catalyst for the desilylation of tert-butyldimethylsilyl ethers

tert-Butyldimethylsilyl (TBDMS) ethers of primary, secondary, and tertiary alcohols and phenolic TBDMS ethers are desilylated to their corresponding alcohols and phenols, respectively, in DMSO, at 80 degrees C, in 68-94% yield in the presence of 0.2-0.4 equiv of P(MeNCH2CH2)3N. Using P(i-PrNCH2-CH2)3N as the catalyst, 85-97% yields of desilylated alcohols were obtained from TBDMS ethers of 1-octanol, 2-phenoxyethanol, and racemic alpha-phenyl ethanol. These are the first examples of desilylations of silyl ethers catalyzed by nonionic bases. Both catalysts were much less effective for the desilylation of tert-butyldiphenylsilyl (TBDPS) ethers (22-45% yield) under the same conditions as used for TBDMS ethers. Possible pathways involving nucleophilic attack of the anion of the solvent molecule (generated by the catalyst) at the Si-O bond of silyl ether or a prior activation of the silyl ether by the catalyst via a P-Si interaction followed by nucleophilic attack of the solvent anion are proposed on the basis of 1H and 31P NMR experimental data.

Efficient method for the deprotection of tert-butyldimethylsilyl ethers with TiCl4-Lewis base complexes: application to the synthesis of 1beta-methylcarbapenems

TiCl4-Lewis base (AcOEt, CH3NO2) complexes smoothly deprotected tert-butyldimethylsilyl (TBDMS) ethers. The reaction velocity with these complexes, which seemed less reactive due to the influence of Lewis bases, was considerably greater than that with TiCl4 alone. Selective desilylations between aliphatic and aromatic TBDMS ethers (1 and 5), between 1 and benzyl, allyl, tosyl, methoxyphenyl, and chloroacetyl ethers (13, 14, 15, 16, and 17), and between TBDMS and TBDPS ethers (18 and 19) were successfully performed. Desilylation of TBDMS-aldol, acyloin, and beta-lactam analogues 9-12 proceeded smoothly due to anchimeric assistance by the neighboring carbonyl groups. The present method was successfully applied to the practical synthesis of 1beta-methylcarbapenems 20a'-f'.     

A mild, efficient, and selective deprotection of tert-butyldimethylsilyl (TBDMS) ethers using dicationic ionic liquid as a catalyst

High resolution capillary gas chromatography and gas chromatography–mass spectrometry of protein and non-protein amino acids,amino alcohols,and hydroxycarboxylic acids as their tert-butyldimethylsilyl derivatives

A simple, single-step derivatization technique is presented for capillary GC-FID and GC-MS separation and identification of common protein and non-protein constituents of natural peptides as their tert-butyldimethylsilyl (TBDMS) derivatives. The tert-butyldimethyl-silylation of more than sixty compounds was accomplished with high yields and a single peak observed for each component. The TBDMS derivatives of both the protein and non-protein substances, moreover, exhibit excellent separation on apolar capillary columns and can be resolved completely using a polydimethylsiloxane or 5 % phenyl polydimethylsiloxane column and, complementarily, a 50 % phenyl polydimethylsiloxane column. Retention data and molar responses of the TBDMS derivatives on the polydimethylsiloxane column are compiled. Direct coupling of the 5 % phenyl polydimethylsiloxane column to an ion trap mass spectrometer enabled fast separation and identification of the investigated components, at nanomole to picomole levels, on the basis of retention and mass spectral data. The general usefulness of the method is demonstrated by research into new biologically active peptides isolated from entomopathogenic fungi.     

A catalytic method for chemoselective detritylation of 5′-tritylated nucleosides under mild and heterogeneous conditions using silica sulfuric acid as a recyclable catalyst

A rapid, mild and highly efficient procedure for the chemoselective deprotection of triphenylmethyl (trityl, Tr), p-anisyldiphenylmethyl (monomethoxytrityl, MMT) and di-(p-anisyl)phenylmethyl (dimethoxytrityl, DMT) groups from nucleoside trityl ethers has been established. The deprotection was achieved at room temperature, using a catalytic amount of silica sulfuric acid (SSA) in acetonitrile. The trityl nucleosides were deprotected in 2-17 min without any depurination. These conditions are compatible with other acid sensitive hydroxyl protecting groups such as p-methoxybenzyl (PMB), isopropylidene, cyclohexylidene, di-(p-anisyl)methylidene, triisopropylsilyl (TIPS) and t-butyldimethylsilyl (TBDMS).

The apparent order of stability of different protecting group is phenolic TBDMS > 1 degrees OTBDPS > 2 degrees OTBDMS > 2 degrees OTHP > 1 degrees OTHP > 1 degrees OTBDMS > 1 degrees ODMT. TBDMS ether has been cleaved selectively in the presence of isopropylidine, Bn, Ac, Bz, THP, and TBDPS groups. This method is high yielding, fast, clean, safe, cost-effective, and therefore most suitable for practical organic synthesis.
