title: Synthesis of alkyl and aryl esters of N-protected beta-homoamino acids from N-protected alpha-aminodiazoketones.
abstract: A simple and concomitant esterification method for the synthesis of methyl, ethyl, t-butyl, benzyl, and 9-fluorenylmethyl esters of Fmoc-/Boc-/Z-beta-homoamino acids employing Fmoc-/Boc-/Z-alpha-aminodiazoketones by Wolff rearrangement is described. The method offers good yield with purity.
