The reaction of N ‐methyl‐ N‐tert ‐butyldimethylsilyltrifluoroacetamide with arginine proceeds with cleavage of the guanidino group, producing a mixture of the tert ‐butyldimethylsilyl derivatives of ornithine and carbodiimide. These compounds are identified by analysing the reaction mixture using gas chromatography/mass spectrometry.
