Abstract
Abstract A remarkable reaction of azetidine-2, 3-diones with primary as well as secondary amines, and water is presented. Simply by varying the nucleophile, an unprecedented one- step synthesis of α-amino acids, α-amino amides, and dipeptides, was developed in both the racemic and optically pure forms. The current mechanistic hypothesis invokes a concerted process involving CO extrusion. However, a stepwise pathway can also account for these ...
