Abstract

A versatile method is presented for the synthesis of linear polyamines-in particular, the naturally ubiquitous putrescine, spermidine, and spermine-regiospecifically N-alkylated or N- polyalkylated. The new approach is based on the acylation of amines with N-(trifluoroacety1) amino acid chlorides, optional alkylation followed by selective saponification of the (trifluoroacetylhnino function, analogous reacylation, and polyamide to polyamine ...
