Abstract

The reactivity of N-phosphoryl α-alanine differs from N-phosphoryl β-alanine and N-phosphoryl γ-amino butyric acid enormously. N-phospho-α-alanine could self-activate to yield N-phosphopeptides either in aqueous or nonaqueous media, but not β- or γ-amino acid analogues. The mechanism of the reaction is discussed.
