Page column 8-9, (2008/06/13)
The present invention relates to a process for the resolution of DL-racemic mixtures of compounds which crystalize in the form of a conglumerate. Both, the D and L-enantiomers are obtained according to the invention in a industrially feasable process by adding chiral enantioselective polymers to the supersaturated solution of the racemat to inhibit crystalization of one enantiomer. Next a DL-racemic mixture of said compound is suspended in about twice the amount of the crystallized enantiomer. Consequently, the opposite enantiomer could be recovered by said suspension by physical separation.
