A novel silicon containing protecting group has been developed based on the known 2-(trimethylsilyl)ethyl system. The new protecting group is cleaved under very mild conditions by treatment with tetra-n-butylammonium fluoride in CH2Cl2 much more rapidly than the 2-(trimethylsilyl)ethoxycarbonyl group, leading to less side reactions.
