Boc deprotection
N/A
Keep in mind that it is corrosive and volatile.
The mixture was composed of a solution DCM:TFA (30% TFA) and 5mL of DCM. It works well, since I have a quantitative yield, and really fast (takes just 30 minutes).
Accessible, works perfectly and fast.
Corrosive and volatile so, needs to be handled carefully.
Cheap product that is easily accessible. Absolutely highly recommended.
