実験手順

L-Phenylalanine (10.00 g, 60.5 mmol) was added to a dilution of 8.88 g (90.5 mmol) of concentrated sulfuric acid in 110 g of water and then, at an inside temperature of 40° C., a mixture of 10.45 g (151.5 mmol) of sodium nitrite and 20 g of water was added over 5 hours. After addition, the mixture was further stirred at 40° C. and, thereafter, the same work-up procedure as in Example 1 was followed. The combined extract (146.9 g) obtained contained 8.9 g of (2S)-2-hydroxy-3-phenylpropionic acid (yield 89%, optical purity 94.3% ee). The proton concentration (normality) in the reaction of this example was 1.7 mol/kg, the amount of the protonic acid was 3.0 equivalents (relative to L-phenylalanine), and the reaction temperature was 40° C.
