OPTICAL RESOLUTION OF RACEMIC 4-HYDROXY-3-ISOBORNYL-5-METHYL...
67
Enantiomerically enriched aldehydes II. A mix-
ture of 0.3 g (0.8 mmol) of Schiff base III or IV and
5 ml of 90% aqueous acetic acid was heated for 2.5 h
under reflux, 10 ml of diethyl ether was added, the
organic layer was separated, washed with water (2×
7 ml) to remove acid, dried over anhydrous sodium
sulfate, and evaporated. The residue was purified by
column chromatography using petroleum ether–diethyl
ether as eluent.
