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.

Dibutyltin oxide (DBTO) was first utilized for the deacetylation of steroid and diterpene esters. The results showed the deprotection of acetylated steroids and diterpenes separately with moderate catalysis dibutyltin oxide in methanol selectively removed part acetyl groups of these substrates

Regioselective formation of 6-O-acylsucroses and 6,3'-di-O-acylsucroses in one pot with good yields was achieved for the first time by a typical acylation method of sucrose via its dibutylstannylene acetal. Pure monoesters at OH-6 and diesters at OH-6,3' obtained by these

4''-O-Acyl-, 4''-O-alkyl- and 4''-deoxy-tylosin derivatives were synthesized using 2'-O-acetyl-3'',4''-O-(dibutyl-stannio)tylosin as a synthetic intermediate. The in vitro biological evaluation showed that the new derivatives were active against macrolide-resistant clinical isolates of bacteria and mycoplasmas, and that they were resistant to hepatic
Hong-Min Liu et al.
Carbohydrate research, 337(19), 1763-1767 (2002-11-09)
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.
