OPTICALLY ACTIVE DERIVATIVE OF MERCAPTOISOBUTYRIC ACID
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JPS5538386
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
Optically active compounds of formula in which R is either a H3C-, (CH3)3C-, (CH3)3CO-, C6H5CH2O-, C6H5-, o-NO2C6H4-, p-NO2C6H4- or a p-CH3C6H4-group, or salts or lower alkyl esters thereof. The compounds are prepared by the following sequence of reaction steps: (a) there is started from a racemic mixture of a compound according to said formula in which R=a C6H5 group, (b) cinchonidine, D(-)-2-aminobutanol-1 or a derivative thereof is added to this compound as resolving agent, (c) the D(-)-salt of the resolving agent formed is crystallized out and isolated, (d) if necessary, this salt is further purified of the L-isomer by recrystallization, (e) the pure D(-)-salt is hydrolysed in order to remove the resolving agent, (f) the D(-)-S-benzoyl- beta -mercaptoisobutyric acid thus liberated is won and, if necessary, purified, and (g) if desired, the C6H5 group is replaced, in a way known per se, by one of the other possible groups indicated above for R.
