N,N-Diallyltyrosine allyl ester bearing a base-labile phenol protecting group can be obtained from O-benzyloxycarbonyltyrosine by a one-step allylation with allyl bromide. This allyl ester is efficiently deprotected with morpholine in the presence of a catalytic amount of tetrakis(triphenylphosphine)palladium(0) or by alkaline cleavage of the O-benzyloxycarbonyl group followed by enzymatic hydrolysis using α-chymotrypsin.
