The method for preparing an optically active (R)-amino compound characterized by the method comprising stereoselectively carrying out amino group transfer by action of an (R)-form-specific transaminase in the co-presence of a ketone compound (amino acceptor), and an amino compound (amino donor) of a racemic form or an (R)-form, to give an optically active (R)-amino compound. According to the present invention, it is made possible to easily prepare at a high yield the optically active (R)-amino compounds and the like having an aryl group and the like at their 1-position, which have been conventionally difficult to prepare.

A process for producing optically active (R)-amino compounds which comprises treating an aralkyl alkyl ketone compound (the amino receptor) coexisting with a racemic or (R)-amino compound (the amino donor) with an (R)-specific transaminase produced by a microorganism belonging to the genus Arthrobacter and thus effecting stereoselective transamination. This process makes it possible to facilitate the production in a high yield of optically active (R)-amino compounds, etc., having aryl, etc. at the 1-position which have been difficult to synthesize by the conventional techniques.
The present invention relates to a transparent bar soap composition comprising a sodium salt of a fatty acid or a mixed sodium/potassium salt of a fatty acid, at least one amphoteric surfactant selected from the group consisting of compounds represented by formulas (A) to (C), a nonionic surfactant, and at least one glycerin derivative.
