摘要 |
The invention relates to a process for the preparation of N-hydroxy-alpha-amino acids and the derivatives thereof by reacting a derivative of an alpha-amino acid with an aromatic aldehyde to form a Schiff base, oxidizing the Schiff base to an oxaziridine and converting the oxaziridine into the corresponding N-hydroxy-alpha-amino acid derivative and, if so desired, converting that derivative into the acid or a different derivative, in which an alpha-amino acid amide is used as starting material.
