Abstract
Catalytic hydroamination is combined with the Strecker reaction to yield a one-pot synthesis of α-cyanoamines from terminal alkynes. This methodology is further applied to the synthesis of α-amino acids and α-amino esters.
Key words
amino acids - catalysis - hydroamination - Strecker reaction - synthesis
