A new protection/activation strategy for the synthesis of naturally occurring and non-natural alpha-N-alkylamino acids.
A new method for the preparation of N-methylamino acids and some of their derivatives starting from hexafluoroacetone protected amino acids is described. The new concept results in saving of steps compared to conventional protection/activation techniques. Protection and deprotection proceed without recemization.
