Abstract

See full text

Process for the preparation of the optically active [6(S)(-)]N.sup.5 alkaline earth metal salts of methyltetrahydrofolic acid and formyltetrahydrofolic acid wherein an aqueous solution of folic acid is hydrogenated with a high stoichiometric excess of sodium borohydride followed by treating the reaction product with formic aldehyde and optionally further with sodium borohydride when the methyl derivative is desired. Reaction with a salt of the alkaline earth metal precipitates the desired optically active alkaline earth metal salt.
