Process for producing ascorbic acid-2-phosphoric ester salts

摘要

A process for producing an ascorbic acid-2-phosphoric ester salt, where an ascorbic acid-2-phosphoric ester salt solution reduced in the content of excess phosphoric acid or a salt thereof mingled in the solution can be obtained from a solution containing an ascorbic acid-2-phosphoric ester or a salt thereof and a phosphoric acid or a salt thereof, with industrially high efficiency. A process for producing an alkaline earth metal salt of an ascorbic acid-2-phosphoric ester, comprising adding an alkaline earth metal compound to a crude solution containing an ascorbic acid-2-phosphoric ester or a salt thereof and a phosphoric acid or a salt thereof, at a liquid temperature of 0 to 30 DEG C to adjust the pH to 8.5 to 10.5.
