✦ Synopsis
Investigation of the t~,l~-unsaturated-o~-amino acids--dehydrovaline, debydrophenylalanine, and debydropipecolinic acid---revealed that these compounds undergo rapid hydrolysis in neutral aqueous medium, via the imine tautomers, even when the corresponding esters and sodium salts exist as the enamine tautomers. This is true even for dehydropipecolinic acid which had been reported to be stable for I 0-18 b in dilute aqueous neutral solution.
