[structure: see text]. On addition of Et2AlCN/i-PrOH, masked oxo sulfinimines give alpha-amino nitriles that afford oxo alpha-amino acids on hydrolysis. These amino acids cyclize and are reduced to cis proline and cis pipecolic acids derivatives in high ee and good yield. This new procedure avoids many of the limitations related to the preparation of oxo amino acids from proteinogenic amino acids.

The anodic oxidation of N-protected dipeptide esters using chloride as a redox catalyst can be performed regioselectively at the C-terminal amino acid.With methanol as solvent, glycine as the C-terminal, and L-valine or L-proline as N-terminal amino acid methoxylation at the glycine residue takes place.Deprotection of this product leads to the (3S,6RS)-6-methoxy-2,5-piperazinedione (3) which can be applied as a chiral cationic glycine equivalent.The exchange of the methoxy group by C-nucleophiles takes place with high trans-diastereoselectivity under steric control by the substituent in 3-position.With branched amino acids at the C-terminus of the dipeptide ester the anodic oxidation in acetonitrile/methanol (95:5) as solvent with tetraethylammonium chloride as supporting electrolyte and redox catalyst leads to methyl imidazolidin-4-one-2-carboxylates.The cyclization takes place via the intermediate formation of the N-acylimino ester of the C-terminal amino acid.
