Abstract
Abstract The 9-xanthenylmethyl group has been investigated as a photocleavable protecting group for amines. Several amines, including two amino acids, were protected in good to very good yield. Irradiation of the protected substrates in neutral solution regenerated the starting amines in good to excellent yield.
