Participants

Reaction Steps

To a suspension of glycine (1.50 g, 20 mmol) in 100 ml dry methanol were added triethylamine (3.5 ml, 2.5 g, 25 mmol) and ethyl trifluoroacetate (3.0 ml, 3.55 g, 25 mmol). The mixture was stirred overnight to give a homogeneous solution. The solvents were removed and the resulting oil coevaporated with toluene to remove traces of methanol. The product was used without purification.
