    Abstract: PURPOSE:To produce D-(-)-tartaric acid with industrially advantage by culturing a microorganism which is capable of assimilating L-(+)-tartaric acid, but substantially not assimilating D-(-)-tartaric acid in a medium containing DL-tartaric acid. CONSTITUTION:A microorganism in Cryptococcus, Trichosporon, or Klebsiella, capable of assimilating L-(+)-tartaric acid, but substantially not assimilating D-(-)-tartaric acid, is cultured in a medium containing DL-tartaric acid to effect asymmetric decomposition of L-(+)-tartaric acid. Then, remaining D-(-)- tartaric acid is isolated and collected from the culture mixture. An example of the microorganism is Cryptococcus laurentii ATCC 36832. The concentration of DL-tartaric acid in the medium is usually 1-300g/l, preferably 30-150g/l.

    Abstract: PURPOSE:To selectively assimilate only L-aspartic acid and readily obtain D- aspartic acid, by cultivating a specific microorganism capable of assimilating only the L-aspartic acid in a culture medium containing DL-aspartic acid. CONSTITUTION:A microorganism, belonging to the genus Bacterium, Escherichia, Serratia Alcaligenes, Flavobacterium, Providencia, Pseudomonas, Debaryomyces, Hansenula, Pichia, Saccharomycopsis, Candida, Torulopsis, Cryptococcus, etc., and having selective assimilating ability to assimilate only L-aspartic acid without assimilating D-aspartic acid is cultivated in a culture medium containing DL-aspartic acid as a carbon and nitrogen sources. The resultant culture fluid is then subjected to centrifugation to remove the microbial cells therefrom and afford the aimed D-aspartic acid.

    Abstract: PURPOSE:To obtain a proline ester convertible to proline (amino acid) chemically or biochemically in high yield by one stage from a butyric acid derivative, by reacting a 2-cyanoethylglycine ester with hydrogen in the presence of a palladium catalyst. CONSTITUTION:A 2-cyanoethylglycine ester shown by the formula I (R is lower alkyl, etc., especially ethyl) is reacted with hydrogen in the presence of a palladium catalyst to give a proline ester shown by the formula II advantageously. The starting substance, for example, is obtained by subjecting acrylonitrile to Michael addition to a Schiff base of glycine ester and benzophenone, hydrolyzing the reaction product in the presence of an acid, and it may be in the form of a salt such as hydrochloride, etc.

    Abstract: PURPOSE:To prepare the titled compound useful as an intermediate of amino acid, with simplified process, under mild conditions, in high yield, by reacting N-(diphenylmethylene)glycinonitrile with acrylamide. CONSTITUTION:The 4-cyano-4-(diphenylmethylene)aminobutyric acid amide of formula II can be prepared by reacting N-(diphenylmethylene)glycinonitrile of formulaIwith acrylamide in a solvent, preferably in a binary-phase solvent system containing a phase-transfer catalyst, in the presence of a base, at 0-80 deg.C, preferably at 0-40 deg.C. The compound of formula II can be converted to 4-amino- 4-cyanobutyric acid amide of formula III and benzophenone by hydrolyzing in the presence of an acid, and glutamic acid of formula IV can be obtained by heating the compound of formula III in the presence of an acid or base. The by-produced benzophenone is recycled and reused as a raw material of the compound of formulaI.

    Abstract: PURPOSE:To prepare tryptophan hydantoin, by hydrolyzing the compound obtained by the reaction of N-(diphenylmethylene)aminoacetonitrile with gramine in the presence of an alkyl sulfate, etc., and reacting the hydrolyzate with ammonium carbonate. CONSTITUTION:The objective compound of formula IV is prepared by (1) reacting the compound of formulaIwith gramine in the presence of an alkyl sulfate of formula R R SO4 (R and R are H or 1-4C alkyl, and are not H at the same time) or an alkyl halide of formula R X (R is 1-12C alkyl or aralkyl; X is Cl, Br or I), (2) hydrolyzing the resultant compound of formula II in the presence of an acid to afford the compound of formula III, and (3) reacting the product with ammonium carbonate. EFFECT:The objective compound can be prepared in high yield with simplified steps, and the by-products can be reused as a raw material for the preparation of starting raw material. USE:Intermediate of tryptophan.

    Abstract: PURPOSE:To obtain the titled compound useful as a foaming catalyst of polyurethane in high yield with a small amount of formic acid to be used, by methylating hexamethylenediamine reductively with an acid containing a formaldehyde and at least formic acid in a specific proportion. CONSTITUTION:Hexamethylenediamine (HD) of formula I is reacted with an acid containing a formaldehyde and at least formic acid to give the titled compound (TM-HD) of formula III. In the reaction, the formaldehyde in an amount of 3.95- 4.20mol calculated as formaldehyde based on one mole HD, formic acid in an amount of (6.0-x) to (6.5-x)mol as the acid and y moles monobasic organic acid and/or z moles dibasic organic acid are used. Values of x, y and z are as follows: x is 0.5-2.0; y and z are positive numbers including 0; x=y+2z. The amount of raw chemicals, particularly the formic acid, can be reduced as compared with the conventional method, and TM-HD can be obtained with saved resources and energy.

    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain the subject compound useful as an intermediate for medicines by a method high in the recovery of a resolving agent and in production efficiency by using an optically active acidic amino acid derivative as the resolving agent. SOLUTION: The mixture of a (+)-2-piperazinecarboxylic acid derivative with (-)-2-piperazinecarboxylic acid derivative as a raw material is brought into contact with a resolving agent such as an optically active N-acyl acidic amino derivative of the formula [R is H, a 1-10C alkyl; (n) is 1, 2] in an amount of 0.4-1.1 mole per mole of the raw material to produce the diastereoisomer salt. The obtained diastereoisomer salt is usually deposited from the solution at 0-100 deg.C, and the deposited salt is disintegrated to separate the optically active (+)-2-piperazinecarboxylic acid derivative, etc., from the resolving agent.
