✦ Synopsis
A facile synthesis of a wide variety of N-protected p-amino akobol derivatives under mild conditions is described. N-umtbane proceded amino acid N-carboxyanhydrides (UNCAs) were used as starting ma&al and reduced into the correspooding akohols with the appropriate hydride, sodium borobydride. The reaction is simple, unexpensive, e&ly scaled up, and pmceeds witbout observable mcemization. N-protected pamino alcohols are of great interest in the synthesis of pcptidc bond surrogates because they are key intermediates for the obtention of a-amino aldehydes by oxydationl which are potent inhibitors of proteases or for the preparation of stereochemically

Chiral N-protected p-amino alcohols are easily obtained by NaB& reduction of mixed anhydndes of N-protected a-ammo acids m an organic/aqueous medium. The alcohols obtamed from side chain or main chain reduction of N-protected asparhc acid are converted in good yields into lactones.
