Hi there!
I have the following problem, could anybody be of any help?
I am working on the protection of an hydroxy-aminoacid in solution.
I've temporarily blocked the carboxy function with the allyl group, but
after the protection of the hydroxy chain, I must remove the allyl
ester.
In SPPS the Pd(Ph3P)4 soluble catalyst is available but, as I am
working in solution, I would like to avoid this one, to save time in
the purification process and have higher yields.
Does anybody know about an insouble catalyst which can perform the
same reaction and the relative procedure?
Thanks a lot
