✦ Synopsis
Selective cleavage of C-benzotriazole bonds in the presence of C-O bonds is reported for the reductive lithiation of N-(ct-alkoxybenzyl)benzotriazoles and N-(a-alkoxyallyl)benzotriazoles in a onestep or two-step process. Trapping of the intermediates with carbonyl compounds gave unsymmetrically protected 1,2 or 1,4-diols in moderate yields.
