| Abstract: | N‐(p‐Toluenesulfonyl)glycine o‐phenolamide ( 3a ) and the analogous derivatives of d,l‐alanine ( 3b ), L ‐valine ( 3c ), L ‐leucine ( 3d ), and L ‐phenylalanine ( 3e ) were synthesized in yields >80% by condensation of N‐(p‐toluenesulfonyl)amino acyl chlorides with o‐aminophenol. The structure and conformation of these amides were established by NMR spectroscopy and X‐ray crystallography. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
