Abstract

A commercially available borate ester, B(OCH2CF3)3, can be used to achieve protecting-group free direct amidation of α-amino acids with a range of amines in cyclopentyl methyl ether. The method can be applied to the synthesis of medicinally relevant compounds, and can be scaled up to obtain gram quantities of products.
