Sg. Zlotin et al., SYNTHESIS OF ALKYL N-(ALPHA-AMIDOMETHYL)GLYCINATES FROM GLYCINE ESTERS, AROYLAMIDES, AND FORMALDEHYDE, Russian chemical bulletin, 43(6), 1994, pp. 1015-1017
A one-step synthesis of alkyl N-(alpha-amidomethyl)glycinates from gly
cine eaters or their salts, formaldehyde, and aroylamides was develope
d. The effect of the structure of the amide component and the reaction
conditions on the yields of the products was investigated.
