N,N,N’,N’-Diethylene bis-(S)-α-amino acid diester dihydrochlorides (piperazine derivatives) were prepared in 70-80% yield by the reaction of 1 mol equivalent of N,N’-monoethylene-bis(S)-α-amino acid diester dihydrochloride with 1 mol equivalent of glyoxal in the presence of 2 mol equivalents of sodium cyanoborohydride in methanol. The precursors used were also obtained similarly from (S)-α-amino acid ester hydrochlorides using glyoxal and sodium cyanoborohydride in 70-80% yield.
