O-N intramolecular alkoxycarbonyl migration of typical protective groups in hydroxyamino acids

J Org Chem. 2006 Mar 17;71(6):2542-5. doi: 10.1021/jo0525579.

Abstract

O-N Intramolecular alkoxycarbonyl (carbonate-carbamate) migration was found to occur as a common reaction of hydroxyamino acids under mild basic aqueous conditions with no formation of side products. Carbonate protective groups migrate to produce amino-protected carbamate derivatives of hydroxyamino acids with high efficiency and purity.
