Also, the derivatives, which have at least one hydroxyl group at the 2- or 3-position, or the 6-carboxyl group, can be converted to their salts by reaction with an appropriate base such as an alkali metal oxide, alkali metal hydroxide, alkali metal carbonate or bicarbonate, alkaline earth metal oxide, alkaline earth metal hydroxide, alkaline earth metal carbonate or an amine, or and ammonium hydroxide, or by contact with a cation exchange resin substituted with an appropriate alkali metal, alkaline earth metal, or an appropriate ammonium ion. It is also possible to isolate the desired derivatives in the form of a salt using routine means such as recrystallization and reprecipitation after direct conversion of the derivatives to their salt without isolating the derivatives by neutralizing the reaction mixture by the addition of an appropriate base such as an alkali metal oxide, alkali metal hydroxide, alkali metal carbonate or bicarbonate, alkaline earth metal oxide, alkaline earth metal hydroxide or alkaline earth metal carbonate, or an amine, or an ammonium hydroxide, or by bringing the reaction mixture into contact with a cation exchange resin substituted with an appropriate alkali metal, alkaline earth metal or an ammonium ion, and then, distilling off the solvent.
Examples of salts of the derivatives include salts of alkali metals (e.g., lithium, sodium, potassium, etc), salts of alkaline earth metals (e.g., magnesium, calcium, barium, etc), ammonium salts, pyridinium salts and substituted ammonium salts. Examples of substituted ammonium salts include methylammonium, ethylammonium, propylammonium, butylammonium, pentylammonium, hexylammonium, anilinium, benzylammonium, dimethylammonium, diethylammonium, dipropylammonium, dibutylammonium, dipenttylammonium, dihexylammonium, dianilinium, piperidinium, morpholinium, pyridazinium, pyrrolidinium, dibenzylammonium, trimethylammonium, triethylammonium, tripropylammonium, tributylammonium, tripentylammonium, trihexylammonium, tribenzylammonium tetramethylammonium, tertaethylammonium, tetrapropylammonium, tetrabutylammonium, tetrapentylammonium, tetrahexylammonium, trimethylphenylammonium, trimethylbenzylammonium, triethylphenylammonium, triethylbenzylammonium, tripropylphenylammonium, tripropylbenzylammonium, tributylphenylammonium and tributylbenzylammonium.

Measurement of Oxidation Potential
The oxidation potential of the compound of the present invention is measured by Cyclic Voltammetry under the following conditions;
substrate: 5 mmol/l in CH.sub.3 CN containing 0.1M LiClO.sub.4
scan rate: 100 mV/sec
Pt electrodes
The results are shown in the following Table.
TABLE______________________________________Compound anodic peak potentials (V vs SCE)______________________________________Example 18 +1.26Example 20 +1.28Example 36 +1.15Example 48 +1.14Control +1.13______________________________________ (Note) control: Dglucosaccharoascorbic acid
From the above results, it is clear that the compound of the present invention, which has at least one hydroxyl group at the 2- or 3-position, has the same level of reducing activity as the control compound.
The control compound has already been disclosed in European Patent Laid-open No. 0,228,273. It is a compound known as having the same level of reducing activity as an ascorbic acid.
