Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 3
Claim 1
Independent Claim 78 words
A process for the preparation of 4-aminohex-5-enoic acid or salt thereof which comprises treating a pyrrolidone compound of the formula ##STR11## wherein R 1 is hydroxy, amino, or tertiary-butoxy with an excess of a strong acid, optionally preceded by treatment with an excess of a strong base, at about 100° to 150° C. for about 2 to 24 hours followed by treatment with base or application to an acid ion exchange resin when the free base is desired.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 78 words
A process for the preparation of 4-aminohex-5-enoic acid or salt thereof which comprises treating a pyrrolidone compound of the formula ##STR11## wherein R 1 is hydroxy, amino, or tertiary-butoxy with an excess of a strong acid, optionally preceded by treatment with an excess of a strong base, at about 100° to 150° C. for about 2 to 24 hours followed by treatment with base or application to an acid ion exchange resin when the free base is desired.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 61 words
