Abstract

Child's play! Allyl ethers as protecting groups for hydroxyl functions can be removed readily with a combination of DIBAL and catalytic amounts of [NiCl2 (dppp)]. Propene is expelled in this remarkably selective reaction, and a nickel-catalyzed hydroalumination-elimination pathway is proposed [Eq. (a)]. dppp=propane-1,3-diylbis(diphenylphosphane).
