Abstract: | Synthesis of a new photolabile protecting group, bis(4,5-dimethoxy-2-nitrophenyl)ethylene glycol (4) from 4,5-dimethoxy-2-nitrobenzyl alcohol in three steps in good yields is described. The acetals and ketals of 4 are stable against acidic and basic reaction conditions and are cleaved smoothly on irradiation at 350 and 400 nm with regeneration of carbonyl compounds in high yields and efficiency. |
