A synthesis of a series of N-alkoxycarbonyl mercaptobenzothiazoles (MBTs) and their application as reagents for chemoselective protection of amino group are presented herein. It was shown that all new reagents, Z-MBT, Fmoc-MBT, Phoc-MBT, and Tec-MBT, are highly effective in the selective N-alkoxycarbonylation of (S)-isoserine. The transformation is a simple, fast, and low-cost protocol, which is applicable in scale-up experiments. The starting MBT was fully recovered at the end of the process, which is an additional advantage of the method. The efficiency of the Z-reagent was also demonstrated by the selective protection of both gentamicin B and (S)-isoserine before their peptide-type coupling in the synthesis of the aminoglycoside antibiotic isepamicin.
