Anchoring an α‐amino acid residue by its amine function onto a solid support is an alternative to develop chemistry on its carboxylic function. This strategy can involve the use of amino‐acid esters as precursors of the carboxylic function. A complete study on the Wang‐resin was performed to determine the non‐racemizing saponification conditions of anchored α‐amino esters. The use of LiOH, NaOH, NaOSi(Me) 3 , various solvents and temperatures were tested for this reaction. After saponification and cleavage from the support, samples were examined through their Marfey's derivatives by reversed phase HPLC to evaluate the percentage of racemization.
