Abstract

N-Boc derivatives of Leu, Met, Thr, Trp, and Pro, the properties of which resemble those of the respective α-amino acid residues present in proteins, rapidly oxidize in the presence of 3, 3-dimethyldioxirane to give different products depending on the structure of the oxidizable group in the side chain. A high regioselectivity for the oxygen atom insertion into the γ-CH bond of Leu residues with respect to the weaker α-CH bond was observed. A position ...
