Synthesis of 2: O-allyl-l-tyrosine (2) was synthesized according to thepublished procedures[21] with minor modifications. N-(tert-butoxycarbon-yl)-l-tyrosine (2.95 g, 10 mmole) was dissolved in 80 mL of N,N-dimethyl-formamide (DMF). The solution was cooled to 5 8C and NaH (0.63 g,26 mmole) was added. The reaction mixture was allowed to warm up to10 8C and stirred for an additional 2 h. Allyl bromide (1.33 g, 11 mmole)was then added with stirring and the reaction mixture was warmed to roomtemperature and stirred for an additional 4 h.
