Abstract
The use of the cyanomethyl unit as a protecting group for phenols, pri mary and secondary amines, and carbamates is described. Optimized cond itions for formation and hydrolysis of cyanomethyl in the presence of the other hydrogenolysis-sensitive groups such as O- and N-benzyl grou ps are presented.
