N-{[(2-Methyl-2-propanyl)oxy]carbonyl}alanine (CAS: 3744-87-4) is synthesized through a multistep process involving the protection of the carboxyl group of alanine, followed by the introduction of the 2-methyl-2-propanol moiety via an esterification reaction. Commonly, a catalyst such as HOBt (1-Hydroxybenzotriazole) is used to improve the reaction selectivity. The overall process yields a high purity product with good yield.
