2.2.3 Deprotecrion <strong>of</strong> FDiaIkyl- <strong>and</strong> PHydroxry- a-<strong>Amino</strong> <strong>Acids</strong><br />

A necessary part <strong>of</strong> any synthetic route is the straighdonvard removal <strong>of</strong><br />

protecting groups. However, this is the stage at which numerous methods fail for<br />

different reasons. Once the various B-hydroxy-a-amino acids had been synthesized.<br />

deprotection was required in order to assess both diastereomeric <strong>and</strong> enantiomeric punty.<br />

2.2.3.1 Boc Removal<br />

The Boc protecting group was easily removed with wet trifluoroacetic acid (TFA)<br />

in CH2C12 under st<strong>and</strong>ard conditions <strong>and</strong> was typically complete in less than 30 minutes<br />

(Scheme 2.23)?
