  • Patent number: 8865933
    Abstract: This invention relates to a method for obtaining optically pure amino acids, including optical resolution and optical conversion. This method significantly shortens the time taken for optical transformation, and enables the repeated use of an organic solution containing a enantioselective receptor, to thereby obtain optically pure amino acids in a simple and remarkably efficient manner, and to enable the very economical mass production of optically pure amino acids.
