The reaction of enolates of α‐unsubstituted carboxamides 3 with diphenyl phosphorazidate (DPPA) and di( tert ‐butyl) dicarbonate (‘Boc anhydride’) in THF at −78° yielded 2‐{[( tert ‐butoxy)carbonyl]amino}carboxamides 5 ( Scheme 2 ) which are derivatives of α‐amino acids. In this reaction, DPPA acts as an electrophilic amination reagent. A reaction mechanism is proposed in Scheme 3 .
