H. Miyabe et al., One-pot synthesis of alpha-amino acids based on free radical-mediated carbon-carbon bond formation, J CHEM S P1, (22), 1998, pp. 3659-3660
The one-pot reaction of 2-hydroxy-2-methoxyacetic acid methyl ester with be
nzyloxyamine and an alkyl radical provided a convenient method for preparin
g the protected alpha-amino acids via a carbon;carbon bond formation by int
ermolecular carbon radical addition to glyoxylic oxime ether.
