PROCESS FOR PRODUCING SULFUR-CONTAINING AMINO ACIDS

The present invention relates to a process for producing a sulfur-containing amino acid, comprising a step of oxidizing a 2-aminoethanol compound having, at position 2, a sulfur-containing hydrocarbon group having 1 to 24 carbon atoms in the presence of copper and water.

S-substituted 2-azido-3-mercapto-propionic acid ester and process for its production and use

The subject matter of the invention are S-substituted 2-azido-3-mercapto-propionic acid esters of the general formula STR1 in which R1 is a methyl or ethyl group and R2 is an unsubstituted or substituted alkyl group, a cycloalkyl group, an unsubstituted or substituted aromatic or heteroaromatic group or a benzyl group, and a process for their production by reaction of a methyl or ethyl ester of 2-chloroacrylic acid with a corresponding thiol to form an S-substituted 2-chloro-3-mercapto-propionic acid ester and subsequently exchanging the chlorine atom with an azido group as well as use of the compounds of formula (I) as intermediate products in the production of D,L-cysteine or derivatives of D,L-cysteine.
