N-t-Butyloxycarbonyl-amino acid(aspartic acid:Asp, glutamic acid:Glu, β-aminoglutaric acid: β-Agl)anhydrides were deprotected upon heating at temperatures slightly higher than the melting points of these compounds and polypeptides were synthesized easily in high yield.

An acid labile N-protecting group for amino acids, t-butyloxycarbonyl (Boc) group has deprotected at elevated temperatures. The study describes an application of the lability on heating to synthesis of polypeptides from acidic amino acids. t-Butyloxycarbonyl-acidic amino acids (aspartic acid, glutamic acid and β-aminoglutaric acid) and their anhydrides were heated at the higher temperatures than their melting points. Anhydrides of t-butyloxycarbonyl-aspartic acid and t-butyloxycarbonyl-β-aminoglutaric acid gave polypeptides. Thermal analyses of the substrates clarified the pathway of the polypeptide formation.

Bronsted base-assisted boronic acid catalysis for the dehydrative self-condensation of carboxylic acids is described. Arylboronic acid bearing bulky (N,N-dialkylamino)methyl groups at the 2,6-positions can catalyze the intramolecular dehydrative condensation of di-and tetracarboxylic acids. This is the first successful method for the catalytic dehydrative self-condensation of carboxylic acids.(Figure Presented)
