Abstract

We have found a novel way of protecting the hydroxyl function in hydroxy‐L‐amino acids, making use of the t‐butoxy group, which is readily split by acids, but not by bases.

This group is introduced by acid‐catalysed addition of isobutene to N‐acylated hydroxy‐L‐amino acids. The blocking group is easily removed at or below room temperature with trifluoroacetic acid without racemization and without breaking peptide bonds ^1,2^

## Abstract The value of several reagents capable of removing quantitatively the α‐amino protecting group of NPS‐aminoacyl‐ or peptidyl‐derivatives is assessed, by comparison with the reagents currently used, __i.e.__ hydrogen chloride, RS^–^‐nucleophiles or alkyl thioamides, especially with regard
