2,3-Dichloro-5,6-dicyano-1,4-benzoquinone (or DDQ) is the chemical reagent with formula C 6 Cl 2 (CN) 2 O 2. This oxidant is useful for the dehydrogenation of alcohols, [3] phenols, [4] and steroid ketones. [5] DDQ decomposes in water, but is stable in aqueous mineral acid. [6]
Orthogonal protection is a strategy allowing the specific deprotection of one protective group in a multiply-protected structure. For example, the amino acid tyrosine could be protected as a benzyl ester on the carboxyl group, a fluorenylmethylenoxy carbamate on the amine group, and a tert-butyl ether on the phenol
For example, (C 6 H 5)(CH 3) 2 C + is referred to as a "benzylic" carbocation. The benzyl free radical has the formula C 6 H 5 CH 2 • . The benzyl cation or phenylcarbenium ion is the carbocation with formula C 6 H 5 CH + 2 ; the benzyl anion or phenylmethanide ion is the carbanion with the formula C 6 H 5 CH − 2 .
It is also a good test for the successful deprotection of a secondary amine. Secondary amines react with chloranil to give a brown/red/orange derivative, the colour depending on the amine. In these reactions, the amine displaces chloride from the ring of the quinone.
As a second example, researchers synthesized a cycloprene-modified glutamate photocaged with a 2-nitroveratrol-based PPG. As it is an excitatory amino acid neurotransmitter, the aim was to develop a bioorthagonal probe for glutamate in vivo. [47] In a final example, Venkatesh et al. demonstrated the use of a PPG-based photocaged therapeutic. [48]
Deprotection of Boc-protected amines can be achieved using trimethylsilyl trifluoromethanesulfonate and triethylamine or 2,6-lutidine. [ 7 ] [ 8 ] TMSOTf is also a useful reagent to replace metal-halogen bonds with a covalent M-O(SO2CF3) bond, the by-product being the highly volatile TMSCl which is easily removed.

This problem has been handled by synthesizing asymmetric boron complexes and replacing the fluorine groups with phenyl groups. The unsubstituted BODIPY has a broad absorption band, from about 420 to 520 nm (peaking at 503 nm) and a broad emission band from about 480 to 580 nm (peaking at 512 nm), with a fluorescence lifetime of 7.2 ns .
