A process for chemically resolving a mixture of enantiomers of primary amines, such as enantiomers of 1,3-dimethyl-5-methoxyoxindolylethylamine, provides one of the enantiomers in the form of a tartaric acid salt. In carrying out the process, an enantiomeric mixture is contacted with a chiral acid in an amount sufficient to preferentially precipitate a salt of the chiral acid and one of the enantiomers. The resulting precipitate can then be recovered. The chiral acid is selected from the group consisting of dibenzoyl-D-tartaric acid, dibenzoyl-L-tartaric acid, ditoluoyl-D-tartaric acid, and ditoluoyl-L-tartaric acid. The precipitates can be used in the synthesis of stereospecific forms of physostigmine.
一种对伯胺对映体混合物(如 1,3-二甲基-5-甲氧基吲哚乙胺的对映体)进行化学分解的工艺可提供酒石酸盐形式的其中一种对映体。在实施该工艺时,将对映体混合物与手性酸接触,接触量足以优先沉淀出手性酸和其中一种对映体的盐。然后回收沉淀物。手性酸选自二苯甲酰基-D-酒石酸、二苯甲酰基-L-酒石酸、二托洛尔-D-酒石酸和二托洛尔-L-酒石酸组成的组。沉淀物可用于合成立体特异形式的酞丁斯的明。
