Abstract
tert-Butoxycarbonyl chloride (BocCl) can be generated in situ from tert-butyl alcohol, COCl2, and pyridine at -74 ˚C to introduce the Boc group in high yield into a hindered amino acid. The method is suitable for large-scale preparations of Boc-amino acids.
Key words
Boc chloride - COCl2 - pyridine - mixed anhydrides - amino acids
