New Synthesis of Amino Acids from Halogenated Carboxylic Esters

Abstract
Chemically synthesized α‐amino acidsare used to fortify foodstuffs and animal feeds. The drawbacks of former syntheses are avoided in the reaction sequence(1)(2)(3)which leads,e.g.to lysine in an overall yield of 52% (X  Cl, Br; R1 Me, Et; M  K, Na, Li) equation image
