✦ Synopsis

The use of dlpeptldes as amine components in a Strecker reactlon with aldehydes provides a route to substituted N-carboxymethyl dlpeptldes. Recently a variety of modified ammo acids have been studied as possible antimetabohtes or enzyme inhibitors. One such type of unusual ammo acid, represented by structure 1 occurs In nature and has been the sublect of a systematic mvestlgatlon.' Recently these N-carboxymethyl ammo acids (CH3)2C~-~-NH-C~-C02~~3 C02CH3
