Only when caustic soda or sodium salt of d-tartaric acid (monosodium salt or disodium salt) is used as a neutralizing agent in precipitating hydrogen-d-tartrate (hereinafter referred to as monohydrogen-d-tartrate). It was totally unexpected that a 1-hydrogen-d-tartrate precipitate would form so well. When aqueous ammonia, caustic potash, calcium hydroxide, or magnesium hydroxide is used as an alkaline agent, the production of 1-hydrogen-d-tartrate is insufficient, and therefore DL-2-amino-3-(3,4-dimethoxy It is difficult to remove the D-isomer from phenyl)-2-methyl-propionitrile and the purity is high.
