Functionalized alpha-amino acid building blocks have been prepared in good yield with high regiocontrol and preservation of stereochemistry via iridium-catalyzed borylation of suitably protected aromatic alpha-amino acid derivatives. The utility of these systems in peptide couplings and Suzuki reactions has been demonstrated.
