ABSTRACT:
Biochemical optical resolution of DL-tryptophans in which DL-tryptophan amides are interacted with the culture products, or their treated products, of a microorganism capable of producing amidase is described. L-Tryptophan amides in racemic DL-tryptophan amides are asymmetrically hydrolyzed to form optically active L-tryptophans at a high yield and almost all D-tryptophan amides remain without being subjected to hydrolysis. The resultant D-tryptophan amides are readily hydrolyzed, after separating L-tryptophans, to form optically active D-tryptophans at a high yield.
