Abstract
A process for the optical resolution of DL-cysteine which comprises PA1 (1) converting DL-cysteine into a hydrochloride thereof and forming a saturated or supersaturated aqueous solution thereof, PA1 (2) inoculating the solution with crystals of one optically active form of cysteine hydrochloride as seed crystals, and PA1 (3) preferentially crystallizing optically the same form of the cysteine hydrochloride used as the seed crystals, in a state of a monohydrate thereof.
