tetrafluoroborate is the reagent of choice for the direct and quantitative N-methylation. Further we extend our evaluation to the use of triethyloxonium tetrafluoroborate. This reagent shows to be very efficient in order to prepare N-ethyl derivatives of N-arylsulfonyl-α-amino acid methyl esters. An experimental protocol similar to that used for N-methylation with trimethyloxonium tetrafluoroborate is applied

In this paper we describe a simple and efficient solution-phase synthesis of N-methyl-N-nosyl-α-amino acids and N-Fmoc-N-methyl-α-amino acids. This represents a very important application in peptidesynthesis to obtain N-methylated peptides in both solution and solidphase. The developed methodology involves the use of N-nosyl-α-amino acids with the carboxyl function protected as a phenacyl ester and
