A process for resolving a compound in racemic form comprising the following steps is described: a) reacting a compound in racemic form with a resolving agent, b) forming a diastereoisomeric complex of the resolving agent and an enantiomer of interest, c} separating the enantiomer of interest from the obtained diastereoisomer, wherein such a process is characterized in that said resolving agent is a compound of Formula (I). A diastereoisomeric complex between the resolving agent of Formula (I) and the enantiomer of interest is also described. The process according to the invention allows acid and basic racemic mixtures to be separated.

β-Carboline, which had an acyl group derived from L-proline at the 9-position, reacted with allyltributyltin and 2,2,2-trichloroethyl chloroformate to afford an 1-allyl-1,2-dihydro-β-carboline derivative in a diastereoselective manner. The chiral acyl group at N-9 was readily eliminated by aqueous alkali to give a corresponding carboxylic acid. The formed 1-allyl-1,2-dihydro-β-carboline was transformed via two reduction steps to 1-allyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-β-carboline in high ee. When the allylation was carried out using tetraallyltin instead of allyltributyltin, the stereoselectivity was reversed, and the antipode of the allyl adduct was obtained in high yield and ee in the presence of tin(IV) tetraiodide. Thus, it was found that both enantiomers of 1-allyl-β-carboline were obtained in good enantioselectivities by the use of the same chiral auxiliary.
