## Abstract A novel method for the synthesis of __N__‐methylserines has been developed. The oxazolidines 4 are formed by condensation of the serine methyl esters 1 with formaldehyde. These intermediates are subsequently reduced to the __N__‐methylserine methyl esters 9 by an acid‐catalyzed ring ope

✦ Synopsis
Abstract
The titanium derivative 2 of the bislactim ether 1 of cyclo(‐L‐Val‐Gly‐) reacts with aldehydes and ketones 3 highly diastereoselectively to give the syn‐addition products 4. Upon hydrolysis with diluted trifluoroacetic acid the compounds 4 yield besides methyl L‐valinate the (2__R__,3__S__)‐threo‐serine methyl esters 5.

## Abstract The cyclopropanation of the bislactim ethers 3 with diiodomethanes and diethylzinc proceeds in good yields and with high diastereoselectivities, affording the cyclopropyl bislactim ethers 6. Protection of the hydroxy group and subsequenthydrolysis furnish virtually enantiomerically and
