✦ Synopsis
Resin-bound hydroxyl groups were esterified by N-protected amino acids using triphenylphosphine and diethyl azodicarboxylate (Mitsunobu reaction) in tetrahydrofuran or dimethylformamide. The typical reaction time was 1 h and the yield for different amino acids varied from 65 to 100%. No racemization was detected in model peptides.

Treatment of equatorial cyclohexanols with Ph3P/DEAD/MsOH gives clean conversion to the axial mesylates. Subsequent reaction with NaN3 gives the equatorial azides in overall yields of 74-87%. Axial hydroxyl groups are not affected, allowing the regioselective conversion of methyl cholate into a 3ct-
