title: Novel acetoxylation and C-C coupling reactions at unactivated positions in alpha-amino acid derivatives.
abstract: [Structure: see text] Under special conditions, N-phthaloyl-alpha-amino acid amides of 8-aminoquinoline can be either acetoxylated or arylated selectively at the beta-carbon. In certain cases, arylation can be effected at the gamma-carbon.
