Abstract

Laevo-ascorbic acid (Vitamin C) is prepared by heating esters of the bismethylene ethers of 2-keto-laevo-gulonic acid with acid agents such as hydrochloric acid, sulphuric acid, potassium bisulphate, oxalic acid or formic acid. The type of alcohol used in the esterification of the bismethylene ethers is not important, basic and neutral esters yield equally satisfactory results. In examples: (1) Diacetone-2-keto-laevo-gulonic acid allyl ester is hydrolyzed with 18 per cent hydrochloric acid for 10 minutes, neutralized and evaporated to dryness. The residue is extracted with methyl alcohol from which the laevo ascorbic acid crystallizes; (2) diacetone-2-keto-laevo-gulonic acid diethylaminoethyl ester is hydrolyzed with hydrochloric acid and worked up as in example (1). Specifications 425,198 and 428,815 are referred to.
