Herein, a series of aromatic pentafluorosulfanyl (SF5) containing amino acids are reported. A Negishi cross-coupling strategy utilising a catalyst system of Pd(dba)2 and SPhos afforded the aforementioned SF5 amino acids in yields between 32% and 42%....

A Direct Route for the Preparation of Fmoc/OtBu Protected Iodotyrosine (2018)
Journal Article

Herein the synthesis of an Fmoc/OtBu orthogonally protected iodotyrosine derivative is reported. This has been achieved via a simple two-step process in an overall 58% yield from commercially available Fmoc-Tyr(tBu)-OH. The Fmoc/OtBu orthogonally pro...
