These building blocks are prepared according to various strategies from glutamic and aspartic acids and find interesting synthetic applications. In the first part, the methods for the synthesis of\ N,N-di-Boc-amino aldehydes are summarized. The applications of these chiral synthons for the synthesis of unnatural amino acids and other bioactive compounds are discussed in the second section.}, author = {Constantinou-Kokotou, V. and Magrioti, V.} }
