Abstract
A range of N
α -tetrachlorophthaloyl protected amino acids have been synthesized by an easy and efficient
condensation procedure of the corresponding amino acid and tetrachlorophthaloyl anhydride
under irradiation in an unmodified commercial microwave oven.
Key words
amino acids - microwave irradiation - protecting groups - phthalimide - tetrachlorophthaloyl

biological activity against a number of microorganisms. The reported synthesis did
not include any deprotection step of the TCP protecting group
