Optimized Diazo Scaffold for Protein Esterification

The O-alkylation of carboxylic acids with diazo compounds provides a means to esterify carboxylic acids in aqueous solution. A Hammett analysis of the reactivity of diazo compounds derived from phenylglycinamide revealed that the (p-methylphenyl)­glycinamide scaffold has an especially high reaction...

Zusammenfassung:The O-alkylation of carboxylic acids with diazo compounds provides a means to esterify carboxylic acids in aqueous solution. A Hammett analysis of the reactivity of diazo compounds derived from phenylglycinamide revealed that the (p-methylphenyl)­glycinamide scaffold has an especially high reaction rate and ester/alcohol product ratio and esterifies protein carboxyl groups more efficiently than any known reagent.
