摘要:
Provided are stable hydrate crystals of 14.alpha.-hydroxy-4-androstene-3,6,17-trione having a biological activity of human placenta-originating estrodiene synthesis enzyme inhibitory action. These hydrate crystals include two kinds of 14.alpha.-hydroxy-4-androstene-3,6,17-trione hydrate crystals having a diffraction pattern having characteristic peaks at diffraction angles in crystalline powder X-ray diffraction. Processes for producing these hydrate crystals are also provided.
摘要:
This invention relates to a process for producing optically active phenylalanine, characterized by optically resolving DL-phenylalanine.optically active mandelic acid complexes in an aqueous solvent in the presence of an acidic compound having a pKa value of 0.90 to 2.10 and isolating optically active phenylalanine from the obtained optically active phenylalanine.optically active mandelic acid complex.According to the process of the present invention, it is possible to decrease the amount of a mother liquor of resolution to 1/5 to 1/10 of that when no acidic compound is used and to obtain optically active phenylalanine having an optical purity of as high as 96.5% or above without a step of optical purification when optically active phenylalanine is isolated from the obtained optically active phenylalanine.optically active mandelic acid complex.

摘要:
The present invention relates to a process for producing .alpha.-aspartyl-phenylalanine ester represented by the general formula ##STR1## wherein R' represents an alkyl group having 1 to 4 carbon atoms, by reducing an N-protected-N-hydroxymethyl-.alpha.-aspartyl-phenylalanine ester represented by the general formula ##STR2## wherein R represents an organic mioety which can be substituted reductively by hydrogen, and R' is as defined above, with hydrogen gas or formic acid, in the presence of a reduction catalyst and an aromatic primary amine. According to the present invention, there can be obtained a high purity .alpha.-aspartyl-phenylalanine ester with a high yield.
