| Abstract: | A new efficient synthesis of 1-aminocyclopropanecarboxylic acid (ACC) from methyl 2-diphenylmethyleneaminoacrylate in nearly quantitative yield has been developed. The key step in the synthesis is the removal of both protecting groups in mild conditions and in quantitative yield to afford ACC. |
