Abstract
Hydrogenolysis of 3-benzyloxycarbonyloxazolidine-5-one and 3-benzyloxycarbonyl-4-benzyloxazolidine-5-one by Et3SiH in the presence of F3.CCO2H is demonstrated to be a convenient method for preparing substituted N-methylaminoacids. In contrast with catalytic hydrogenation on Pd/C catalyst, the benzyloxycarbonyl is not removed and the methyl is not lost using this method.
