General description
Dibutyltin(IV) oxide is an organotin compound that is commonly used as a Lewis acid catalyst in organic synthesis. For instance, it can be used for the formation of carbon-carbon bonds through coupling reactions and in the preparation of esters from carboxylic acids and alcohols. It also finds use in allylation reactions, cycloaddition reactions, and ring-opening polymerizations.

A mild and efficient neutral method for the cleavage of O-acetyl groups with dibutyltin oxide has been developed. This method is especially useful in the synthesis of glycosides containing base- or acid-sensitive multifunctional groups.

Dibutyltin oxide-mediated regioselective chloroacetylation of methyl 1-thio-beta-xylobioside, followed by treatment of the product with 4-methylbenzoyl chloride-pyridine, gave methyl 4-O-chloroacetyl-2,3-di-O-(4-methylbenzoyl)-beta-D-xylopyranosyl-(1-->4) -2.3-di - O-(4-methylbenzoyl)-1-thio-beta-D-xylopyranoside (18) in 70% yield. Coupling of 18 with benzyl alcohol afforded the disaccharide benzyl beta-glycoside, which was O-dechloroacetylated

2- and 4-Nitrophenyl beta-D-xylopyranosides (4 and 5) were transformed, via dibutyltin oxidemediated acylation, into the corresponding 2,3-di-O-benzoyl derivatives 11 and 15. Xylobiose and xylotriose were easily isolated by charcoal column chromatography from a commercially available material and converted into the
