A new strategy for the preparation of S-acetamidomethyl-N-fluorenyl-methoxycarbonyl-L-cysteine is reported. Inexpensive, readily available reagents are used, and no special equipment is required. A very homogeneous product is obtained after a simple crystallization at the end of the process, without purification of intermediates.
