Process for the production of n-formyl-aspartyl-phenylalanine or its methyl ester
A process for producing N-formyl-aspartylphenylalanine or its methyl ester, wherein aspartic acid is reacted with formic acid and acetic anhydride in approximately stoichiometric quantities in the presence or absence of a catalyst and phenylalanine or its methyl ester is directly added to the dehydration mixture. This process has a higher yield of the desired N-formyl-dipeptide and minimizes the amount of by-products and unreacted starting materials.

Preparation process of N-formyl-α-aspartyl phenylalanine
This invention relates to an improved process for preparing N-formyl-α- aspartyl phenylalanine. More specifically, it relates to a process for preparing N-formyl-α-aspartyl phenylalanine by condensating N-formyl aspartic acid anhydride and phenylalanine which comprises effecting the condensation reaction in a water medium while maintaining the pH during the reaction in the range of 7-12 and at a reaction temperature of 50° C. or below.

Process for producing α-L-aspartyl-L-phenylalanine methyl ester
A process for preparing an α-L-aspartyl-L-phenylalanine methyl ester which comprises the steps of reacting formyl-L-aspartic anhydride with L-phenylalanine in the presence of water at a high pH, to produce formyl-α-L-aspartyl-L-phenylalanine; removing the formyl group from the formyl-α-L-aspartyl-L-phenylalanine and esterifying the resultant compound with methanol and hydrogen chloride to produce the hydrogen chloride salt of α-L-aspartyl-L-phenylalanine methyl ester; neutralizing the hydrogen chloride salt of α-L-aspartyl-L-phenylalanine methyl ester; and filtering the neutralized solution to produce α-L-aspartyl-L-phenylalanine methyl ester.
