  • Patent number: 8026372
    Abstract: A process for the preparation of ?-alkoxycarbonylamino-?-aminoacids and ?,? orthogonally diprotected diaminoacids from ?,?-diaminoacids using 1-alkoxycarbonylbenzotriazoles as protecting agents is disclosed. In an alternative embodiment, carbamoylating agents in the presence of benzotriazoles are used instead of 1-alkoxycarbonylbenzotriazoles. This reaction is preferably applied to the preparation of ?-alkoxycarbonyllysines from lysine. A process for the preparation of t-butoxycarbonylbenzotriazoles and novel complexes of ?-alkoxycarbonylamino-?-aminoacids with benzotriazoles are also disclosed.
