Preparation of optically pure (1r,2s)- and (1s,2r)-di-p-methoxyphenyl amino alcohol

Article abstract of DOI:10.1080/00397910008086985

Racemic di-p-methoxyphenyl amino alcohol was synthesized in three steps. Optically pure di-p-methoxyphenyl amino alcohols were obtained by recrystallization. The absolute configuration of the amino alcohol was determined by X-ray crystallography.
