The invention concerns a method of synthesising an amino acid from an unsaturated fatty compound I characterised in that it comprises at least the following steps: -cross-metathesis with a short unsaturated compound II, one of compounds I or II comprising a nitrile function and the other of these compounds II or I an ester function, so as to obtain and recover at least one monounsaturated nitrile ester NEU, -hydrolysis of the NEU in unsaturated acid nitrile NAU -hydrogenation of the NAU to saturated amino acid AA, then -purification of the AA, if applicable, in particular by crystallisation. The present invention also concerns a polymer obtained by polymerisation using the amino acid synthesised according to the method of the invention. |
