Abstract

This article describes a mild and efficient synthesis of N 1,N5,N10-tri-tert-butoxycarbonyl spermine from putrescine, with a 41% overall yield. The key steps include a Michael addition and Raney nickel (W-2) reduction. The advantages of this synthesis include a simple procedure, mild conditions, and good yields.
