Chapter 29, Problem 29.69P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The preparation of chiral amino acids by using Strecker synthesis is to be proposed.

Concept introduction: The Strecker synthesis involves the synthesis of α amino acids from the reaction of an aldehyde with hydrogen cyanide and ammonia. This reaction yields α amino nitrile as an intermediate. The hydrolysis of α amino nitrile (an intermediate) yields D and L form of α amino acids.
