An improved preparation of 4-hydroxymethyl-L-phenylalanine

Article abstract of DOI:10.1080/00397919809458709

Palladium-catalyzed hydroformylation of methyl esters of N-Boc-L- tyrosine triflate (1a) and N-Boc-4-iodo-L-phenylalanine (1b) followed by reduction with sodium borohydride and standard deprotection procedures affords the title compound in 77 and 83% over
