A novel and efficient procedure for the synthesis of optically pure α-methylaspartic acid, based on the diastereoselectivealkylation of (1S,2R,4R)-10-(dicyclohexylsulfamoyl)isobornyl 2-cyanopropanoate with α-halocarbonyl compounds, is described.

The enantiospecificsynthesis of both antipodes of α-methylaspartic acid from (S)-tryptophan is described with the key steps being alkylation of the hexahydropyrroloindole 4, oxidative degradation of indoles and, for the preparation of the (R)-isomer, Barton reductive decarboxylation.
