Significance
N-Formyl amino acids and peptides play a crucial role in peptide drug discovery. Thus, synthetic chemists are in search of mild and simple methods for the synthesis of N-formyl amino acids. In 1998, Giard and co-workers developed a simple method for the synthesis of N-formyl amino acid esters without using formylating agents.

Comment
A series of N-formyl amino acid esters were synthesized in three steps with excellent yields without using any formylating agent. This protocol is practically simple, mild, and proceeds without racemization.
