A new process for the optical resolution of racemic mixtures of α-naphthyl-propionic acids of formula
This process comprises reacting a racemic mixture of a compound of formula
with an optically active substance of formula R4-NH2 (III), said substance being a β-aminoalcohol, thus forming a pair of diastereoisomeric amides which are resolved into the single diastereoisomers by fractional crystallization. The obtained single diastereoisomeric amide is then hydrolized to give the desired optically active α-naphthyl-propionic acid of formula
In the above compound I → III and VI, R, is (C1-6)alkyl, R2 stands for hydrogen, halogen, mercapto, (C1-6)alkylthio, phenylthio, benzylthio (C1-6)alkylsulfonyl, benzenesulfonyl, benzenesulfonyl substituted by halogen or (C1-4)alkyl, R3 is a reactive group and R4 is the residue of a primary or secondary alcohol.
式α-萘基丙酸外消旋混合物的光学解析新工艺
该工艺包括将一种式化合物的外消旋混合物与一种式 R4-NH2 (III) 的光学活性物质反应。
与一种光学活性物质 R4-NH2 (III)(所述物质为 β-氨基醇)反应,从而形成一对非对映异构体酰胺,通过分馏结晶将其分解为单一非对映 异构体。然后将得到的单一非对映异构体酰胺水解,得到所需的光学活性 α-萘基丙酸,其式为
在上述化合物Ⅰ→Ⅲ和Ⅵ中,R是(C1-6)烷基,R2代表氢、卤素、巯基、(C1-6)烷硫基、苯硫基、苄硫基、(C1-6)烷磺酰基、苯磺酰基、被卤素或(C1-4)烷基取代的苯磺酰基,R3是活性基团,R4是伯醇或仲醇的残基。
