Diastereoisomeric linear and cyclic ‘N‐chiral quaternary ammonium salts’ (QASs) were efficiently synthesized from corresponding L ‐amino acids in high yields. The diastereoisomers of each pair of ‘N‐chiral QASs’ were successfully separated. The absolute configurations of these QASs were determined predominately by X‐ray single‐crystal analysis. The 1 H‐NMR data of ‘N‐chiral QASs’ provided characteristic information on the configuration of the N‐chiral center. ‘N‐Chiral QASs’ exemplified by [ N ( R )]‐ 2a and [ N ( S )]‐ 2a are stable in protic and aprotic solvents within a broad pH and temperature range.
