[0003] CN 103102295A discloses a production method of N-acetyl-L-cysteine. The method is to combine L-cysteine ​​hydrochloride and acetic anhydride under the conditions of pressure of 0.4Mpa and temperature of 125-135°C. The method has the following disadvantages: 1) reacts under high temperature and high pressure conditions, resulting in high content of reaction by-product N-acetyl-D-cysteine ​​and other related substances, which seriously affects product quality; 2) acyl The reaction needs to add excessive acetic anhydride (the weight ratio of cysteine ​​hydrochloride and acetic anhydride is about 1: 3.3), which will easily cause the racemization of the reaction substrate, increase the impurity content and production cost of the product

Abstract

The invention discloses a production method of N-acetyl-L-cysteine. According to the production method disclosed by the invention, the temperature of acylation reaction is controlled at about 60 DEG C. Under the condition of the temperature, not only is reaction on L-cysteine hydrochloride and acetic anhydride more fully, but also the content of the byproduct N-acetyl-D-cysteine in the product is very low. In addition, according to the preparation method disclosed by the invention, the reaction conditions are strictly controlled, such as concentration of an L-cysteine hydrochloride solution, pH, temperature, pressure of the reaction and the adding manner of acetic anhydride, so that reaction on L-cysteine hydrochloride and acetic anhydride is more fully. Excessive acetic anhydride is not needed for acylation reaction so that the impurity content of the product is reduced and the production cost of the product is lowered.
