A process for the preparation of optically active amino acid amide whereby a mixture of the L-amino and D-amino acid amides in the presence of 0.5-4 equivalents of an aldehyde, relative to the quantity of amino acid amide, in the presence of a solvent and water, is converted in whole or in part by means of an optically active carboxylic acid into a salt of the amino acid amide and the carboxylic acid, and a portion mainly consisting of one of the diastereoisomers of that salt is separated from the reaction mixture obtained. Instead of a mixture of L-amino and D-amino acid amides it is also possible to use a mixture of the Schiff bases of an amino acid amide and an aldehyde, in which case it is not necessary to add extra aldehyde, and the required quantity of water amounts to at least 1 equivalent relative to the quantity of Schiff base. With this process a high yield of optically active amino acid or the corresponding amino acid is rapidly obtained.
一种制备光学活性氨基酸酰胺的工艺,在该工艺中,相对于氨基酸酰胺的量,在0.5-4当量的醛的存在下,在溶剂和水的存在下,L-氨基酸酰胺和D-氨基酸酰胺的混合物通过光学活性羧酸全部或部分转化为氨基酸酰胺和羧酸的盐,并从得到的反应混合物中分离出主要由该盐的非对映异构体之一组成的部分。也可以使用氨基酸酰胺和醛的席夫碱混合物来代替 L-氨基酸酰胺和 D-氨基酸酰胺混合物,在这种情况下无需额外添加醛,而且相对于席夫碱的数量,所需的水量至少为 1 个当量。通过这种工艺可以快速获得高产率的光学活性氨基酸或相应的氨基酸。
