The scheme developed by Batalin, Fradkin, and Vilkovisky (BFV) to convert a second-class constrained system to a first-class one (having gauge invariance) is used in the Floreanini-Jackiw formulation of the chiral boson interacting with a U(1) gauge field. Explicit expressions of the BRST charge, the unitarizing Hamiltonian, and the BRST invariant effective action are provided and the full quantization is carried through. The spectra in both cases have been analyzed to show the presence of the proper chiral components explicitly. In the gauged model, Wess-Zumino terms in terms of the Batalin-Fradkin fields are identified.
