Racemic carboxylic acids have been kinetically resolved by means of homochiral alcohols using the DCC-esterification methodology. The best results were obtained with commercially available homochiral 1-(4-pyridyl)ethanol: 60% e.e. for enantiomerically enriched acids and 76% d.e. for diastereomerically enriched esters.
