As a by-product originating from Salen Co(III) catalysed hydrolytic kinetic resolution (HKR) of (±)-epichlorohydrin in the manufacturing procedure of L-Carnitine, (R)-3-chloro-1,2-propanediol was utilised as a starting chiral material to prepare via key nitrile intermediates and by a final hydrolysis L-Carnitine. The new synthetic approach demonstrated an efficient utilisation of the by-product.
Lipase-catalyzed enantiomer separation of 3-hydroxy-4-(tosyloxy) butanenitrile: Synthesis of (R)-GABOB (=(3R)-4-amino-3-hydroxybutanoic acid) and (R)-carnitine hydrochloride (= (2R)-3-carboxy-2-hydroxy-N,N,N-trimethylpropan- 1-aminium chloride)

Enzymatic resolution of racemic 3-hydroxy-4-(tosyloxy)butanenitrile ((±)-5) by using various lipases in different solvents were studied. The obtained optically pure (3R)-3-(acetyloxy)-4-(tosyloxy)-butanenitrile ((R)-6), upon treatment with aqueous ammonia followed by cone. HCl solution, provided (R)-GABOB (=(3R)-4-amino-3-hydroxybutanoic acid; (R)-1). Similarly, reaction of (R)-6 with aqueous trimethylamine solution followed by cone. HCl solution provided (R)-carnitine hydrochloride (=(2R)-3-carboxy-2-hydroxy-N,N,N- trimethylpropan-1-aminium chloride; (R)-2·HCl) in an expeditious manner.

[PROBLEMS] To provide a process in which in the production of carnitinamide as a production intermediate for L-carnitine, carnitine nitrile can be hydrated into carnitinamide with high selectivity so that high-purity carnitinamide excelling as a substrate for optical resolution or microbial stereoselective hydrolysis can be produced in high yield. [MEANS FOR SOLVING PROBLEMS] There is provided a process comprising hydrating carnitine nitrile into carnitinamide with the use of a catalyst containing manganese oxide to thereby realize production of carnitinamide containing substantially none of carnitine by-products in high yield. As a result, carnitinamide of extremely high purity can be produced through simple and easy crystallization operation.
