Nα-Trifluoroethyl aminoacids have been prepared for the first time and unexpectedly found to behave as conventionally N-protected aminoacids. Novel unnatural peptides are easily prepared in high yields without racemization. The observed chemistry results from steric factors as well as from the acidity of the CF3CH2NH group, according to comparative experiments. Of ten dipeptides that were tested
