Abstract
Abstract For the chemical conversions of a β-trifluoromethyl-β-amino acid ((S)-4,4,4-trifluoro-3-aminobutyric acid, 1), such as the N-terminus protection with benzyloxycarbonyl or tert-butoxycarbonyl group, the C-terminus protection with benzyl or tert-butyl group, and peptide elongation at the both termini, highly practical protocols were established. Through these conversions, the stereochemistry of 1 and/or its condensation counterpart was maintained. Because the protocols developed here are indispensable for the application of 1 in peptide engineering, they would expand the utility of 1 and its derivatives.
