Racemic natural and non‐natural N ‐Boc‐amino acid thioesters undergo enzyme‐catalyzed ammoniolysis and aminolysis with concomitant base‐catalyzed racemization of the non‐transformed D ‐enantiomer with the formation of the corresponding L ‐amides in good yields and excellent enantiomeric purity all above 98% ee . This is the first example of a dynamic kinetic resolution of amino acid derivatives with amides formation.
