The invention relates to a process for the preparation of DL-β-aryl-amino acids of the general Formula.
wherein
R,R, and R2 stand for hydrogen, halogen, C1-6 alkyl, C1-6 alkoxy, nitro or C1-4 dialkylamino.
An aqueous solution of glycine and an excess of urea is heated and the reaction mixture is subjected to acidic cyclisation. The hydantoin thus obtained is reached with an aromatic aldehyde of the general Formula
in aqueous solution in the presence of an excess of ethanolamine or morpholine. The 5-arylidene hydantoin derivative of the general Formula
thus obtained is reduced quantitatively in a dilute alkaline medium with a Raney-nickel or a palladium-carbon catalyst to yield the corresponding 5-aryl-methyl-hydantoin derivative of the general Formula R
which is subjected to alkaline hydrolysis. The corresponding DL-β-aryl amino acid of the general Formula V is obtained in high yield and may be isolated at the isoelectric point thereof
