α- and ω-halo- as well as α,ω-dihalocarboxylic alkyl esters react with potassium cyanate in the presence of alcohol at 80 - 120 deg C in dipolar aprotic solvents to yield α- and ω-(alkoxycarbonylamino)- and α,ω-bis(alkoxycarbonylamino)carboxylic alkyl esters, respectively, in good yields.Hydrolytic cleavage of these mono- or diurethanes with an aqueous solution of hydrochloric acid/formic acid leads to the corresponding amino acid hydrochlorides in nearly quantitative yields.
