The invention provides processes for producing efficiently optically active 2-halogenocarboxylic acids useful in the preparation of drugs or the like and salts thereof with amines. Specifically an optically active 2-halogenocarboxylic acid is produced by halogenating an optically active amino acid in water in the presence of a hydrophobic organic solvent and nitrous acid with the configuration retained and with the racemization inhibited through the removal of 2-hydroxy-bromocarboxylic acid formed as a by-product; the obtained optically active 2-halogenocarboxylic acid is transferred to an aqueous phase by converting it into a salt thereof with a base, followed by the removal of the organic phase; and the optically active 2-halogenocarboxylic acid is transferred again to an organic solvent phase, followed by the removal of the aqueous phase, whereby an optically active 2-halogenocarboxylic acid is obtained through the removal of a halogen component. Further, a high-quality salt of an optically active 2-halogenocarboxylic acid with an amine can be obtained by a crystallization method wherein the amine is added over the period of ½ hour or longer either continuously or in portions and/or wherein the crystallization solvent consists of a hydrophobic organic solvent and a hydrophilic organic solvent.
