An amino acid having a secondary or tertiary amino group and three or more carboxyl groups (AADA) or its salt with an equivalent or less of an alkali metal is produced by reducing, through electrodialysis, alkali metal ions from an aqueous solution of the alkali metal salt of an amino acid having a secondary or tertiary amino group and three or more carboxyl groups. By this configuration, an AADA salt can be produced in a much higher yield than conventional equivalents without requiring a regeneration operation of a resin as in the use of an ion exchange resin or without requiring crystallization-separation of crystals of the AADA salt as in the addition of an organic solvent.
A salt of an amino acid having a secondary or tertiary amino group and three or more carboxyl groups is produced by reacting an amino acid having a secondary or tertiary amino group and three or more carboxyl groups with any of metal oxides, metal hydroxides, metal carbonates, metal hydrogencarbonates, ammonium hydroxide, ammonium carbonate, ammonium hydrogencarbonate or organic amine compounds. By this configuration, a metal salt, ammonium salt or organic amine salt of an AADA can be produced with efficiency without the formation of by-products.
通过电渗析,从具有仲或叔氨基和三个或三个以上羧基的氨基酸的碱金属盐的水溶液中还原碱金属离子,制得具有仲或叔氨基和三个或三个以上羧基的氨基酸(AADA)或其等量或等量以下的碱金属盐。通过这种结构,无需像使用离子交换树脂那样对树脂进行再生操作,也无需像添加有机溶剂那样对 AADA 盐的晶体进行结晶分离,就能生产出比传统等价物产量高得多的 AADA 盐。
具有二级或三级氨基和三个或三个以上羧基的氨基酸盐是通过具有二级或三级氨基和三个或三个以上羧基的氨基酸与金属氧化物、金属氢氧化物、金属碳酸盐、金属碳酸氢盐、氢氧化铵、碳酸铵、碳酸氢铵或有机胺化合物中的任何一种反应制得的。通过这种配置,可以高效地生产出 AADA 的金属盐、铵盐或有机胺盐,而不会形成副产品。
