Optically active amino acids not occurring in nature , are of interest, e.g. as potential enzyme inhibitors or as pharmaceuticals. Reaction of the lithiated lactim ether (1) obtainable from cyclo ‐( L ‐Ala‐ L ‐Ala) with carbonyl compounds and hydrolysis affords the α‐methylserines (2) (and alanine).
