(Chemical Equation Presented) An esterase from Bacillus subtilis (BS2) allows the fast and selective removal of allyl, 2-chloroethyl, and 2,2,2-chloroethyl esters under mild conditions in high yields. In addition, BS2 easily hydrolyzes phenacyl esters, while the hydrolysis of sterically hindered diphenylmethyl esters is slow, requiring longer reaction time and higher enzyme/substrate ratio.

Enzymes are versatile reagents for the efficient removal of methyl and benzyl protecting groups. An esterase from Bacillus subtilis (BS2) and a lipase from Candida antarctica (CAL-A) allow a mild and selective removal of these moieties in high yields without affecting other functional groups.
Facile synthesis of tert-butyl ester of N-protected amino acids with tert-butyl bromide

A facile synthesis of a wide variety of N-benzyloxycarbonyl-amino acid-tert-butyl ester derivatives under mild conditions is described. N-protected amino acids were esterified with tert-butyl bromide in dimethylacetamide as solvent, in the presence of benzyltriethylammonium chloride (BTEAC)and a large excess of potassium carbonate. Many amino Z-acid-Tert-butyl esters that might be difficult to prepare by other methods have been synthesized in high yields by this procedure. The reaction is simple, unexpansive, easily scaled up, and proceeds without observable racemization.
TERT-BUTYL ESTERS OF N-PROTECTED AMINO ACIDS WITH TERT-BUTYL FLUOROCARBONATE (Boc-F)

, p. 6859 - 6860 (2007/10/02)
Tert-butyl fluorocarbonate (Boc-F) is efficiently used for the synthesis of tert-butyl esters of N-protected amino acids.The reaction proceeds at room temperature and under mild conditions in the presence of triethylamine and 4-dimethylamino-pyridine.
