The preparation of (2 S ,4 S )‐ and (2 S ,4 R )‐4‐aminopipecolic acid, a conformationally constrained basic amino acid bearing orthogonal N α / N γ ‐protection suitable for solid‐phase peptide synthesis, is reported. These amino acids were synthesised from enantiopure ethyl (2 S )‐4‐oxo‐1‐(1‐phenylethyl)piperidine‐2‐carboxylate ( 1 ) with introduction of the side‐chain amino group by reductive amination, followed by protection/deprotection of the functional groups. A mixture of Fmoc‐Sly(Boc)‐OH 6 and 7 was used to establish their compatibility in solid‐phase peptide synthesis. (© Wiley‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, 69451 Weinheim, Germany, 2004)
