Abstract
The syntheses and stereochemistry of two new amino acids obtained from the monoterpene ketones (-)-cis-caran-trans-4-one and (-)-menthone via appropri ate lactams are presented. The configuration of all stereogenic centers is confirmed by X-ray crystallography. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Ltd. All righ ts reserved.
