  • Patent number: 7071349
    Abstract: The present invention is to provide a purification method of obtaining N-(1(S)-ethoxycarbonyl-3-phenylpropyl)-L-alanine of high quality in good yield with high productivity, which is accordingly suited for commercial scale application. An impurity-contaminated N-(1(S)-ethoxycarbonyl-3-phenylpropyl)-L-alanine is crystallized from a mixed solvent of alcohol and water in a volume ratio of alcohol/water being 1 to 20 to remove a contaminating impurity into a mother liquor and give crystals of N-(1(S)-ethoxycarbonyl-3-phenylpropyl)-L-alanine.
