title: A new strategy for the construction of α-amino acid esters via decarboxylation.
abstract: A new α-amino acid esters formation reaction has been developed via decarboxylation. The methodology is distinguished by its practical novelty in terms of the readily accessible starting materials, environmentally benign reaction conditions and waste streams, and wide substrate scope.
