By enhancing the leaving group character of benzotriazole via electron-with
drawing substituents such as the 5-chloro or 6-nitro derivatives with the r
elated N,N'-di-tert butoxycarbonyl-1H-benzotriazole-1-carboxamidines, highl
y efficient reagents are obtained for conversion of primary and secondary a
mines in solution and in solid phase to diprotected guanidines.
