The facile and efficient conversion of a tert-butyl protecting group
to an acetyl protecting group by catalytic amounts of bromine in acetyl
chloride and the presence of acetic acid has been developed.

Group 5 and 6 metal chlorides were found as very efficient catalysts for
acylative cleavage of ethers. Compared with conventional Lewis acid
catalysts, group 5 and 6 metal chlorides showed better results in the
catalytic C-O bond cleavage.

A stereoconservative protection and deprotection method
of amino and carboxyl groups is reported. N-Phthaloyl N'-alkyl
secondary amides of α-amino acids
have been generated from N-phthaloyl amino acids by a coupling reaction of
alkylamines using a mixed anhydride method. These secondary
amides have been transformed by thermal rearrangement of the intermediate nitrosoamides
to esters with retention of configuration and excellent yields.
