Title: Error in doc on Rhodium's site: Meth/amph from Phe

The error isn't in the chemistry, but in the diagram. Nothing serious, but the compound synthesized is N-benzyloxycarbonyl protected. The diagram shows N-Boc protection, which is tert-butyloxycarbonyl. The correct representation for benzyloxycarbonyl is Cbz.
