Resolution of (±)-mandelic- and (±)-2-(chiorophenoxy)propionic-acid derivatives by crystallization of their diastereomeric amides with (R)- or (S)-α-arylethylamines

An alternative and cost effective route for the resolution in high ees (95-99%) of (±)-mandelic-and (±)-2-(chlorophenoxy)propionic- acid derivatives is reported. The key step involves the covalent derivatization and separation of their diastereomeric amides with (R)- or (S)-α- arylethylamines.
