Abstract
A novel class of protecting compounds, particularly for amino acids, is based on 2,2 di nitrophenyl ethan- groups, particularly the groups wherein the nitro is in the para position. The ethyl group may be substituted, e.g. by an alkyl group, in the l- position. Preferred compounds include the alcohol or halide which are suitable for protecting acid functional groups, and esters, including activated and substituted esters, particularly the succinimidyl ester, for protecting amine groups. The invention includes methods of manufacture and use, together with protected amino acids.
