Glyceroacetonide–Oxyma [(2,2‐dimethyl‐1,3‐dioxolan‐4‐yl)methyl 2‐cyano‐2‐(hydroxyimino)acetate ( 1 )] displayed remarkable physico‐chemical properties as an additive for peptide‐forming reactions. Although racemization‐free amide‐forming reactions have been established for N ‐urethane‐protected α ‐amino acids with EDCI, 1 , and NaHCO 3 in water or DMF‐water media, amide‐forming reactions of N ‐acyl‐protected α ‐amino acids and segment couplings of oligopeptides still require further development. Diethylphosphoryl–glyceroacetonide–oxyma (DPGOx 3 ) exhibits relative stability in aprotic solvents and is an effective coupling reagent for N ‐acyl‐protected α ‐amino acids and oligo peptide segments. The conditions reported here is also effective in lactam‐forming reactions. Unlike most of the reported coupling reagents, simple aqueous work‐up procedures can remove the reagents and by‐products generated in the reactions.
