An efficient bioinspired deamination method of both natural and unnatural amino acid derivatives has been developed. This method provides easy access to a wide variety of useful α, β‐unsaturated carbonyl compounds. The reaction is realized with two transition metal catalysts (palladium and Nickel) i...
