Acetoxy group
Acetoxy group, abbreviated AcO or OAc, is a chemical functional group of the structure CH3-C(=O)-O-. It differs from the acetyl group CH3-C(=O)- by the presence of one additional oxygen atom. The name acetoxy is the short form of acetyl-oxy.
Functionality
An acetoxy group may be used as a protection for an alcohol functionality in a synthetic route although the protecting group itself is called an acetyl group.
Alcohol protection
There are several options of introducing an acetoxy functionality in a molecule from an alcohol (in effect protecting the alcohol by acetylation):
An alcohol is not a particularly strong nucleophile and, when present, more powerful nucleophiles like amines will react with the above-mentioned reagents in preference to the alcohol.

by: Ling KaiThere was a girl
With no conviction
Of how to live much less
To die
And so she dated all the boys
Who would take her
A taste of destruction
And joy
Oh such joy
Prechorus:
They drank wine and danced
And pressed their bodies together
Cos tomorrow is just
Another tomorrow
The candlelight
Burns evil
The candle light
Burns hope
Chorus:
She says I never meant to
Take it that far
And took the keys out of the car
Under the stars And they
Were lost
A long way from home
And so she took another ride
From another Beautiful stranger
There was a boy
who never listened
on how to live much less to die
and so he fell inside a dream of his making
a taste of destruction and joy
oh such joy
Prechorus, Chorus etc
Bridge
Maybe she just needs an answer
Maybe he just needs to be asked
But love is a crowded sinking ship
No one wants to get out of
Chorus
