, p. 2193 - 2195 (1983)
An efficient resolution of the title acid (1) by using (+)- and (-)-α-phenethylamine is described.The (+) acid was determined to be 1S by chemical correlation through (+)-cis-bicyclooctan-2-one (3) with (+)-cis-bicyclooct-7-en-endo-2-ol (4) where the absolute configuration is known to be 1R.The 1R configuration for (-)-3 was consistent with the negative Cotton effect observed for this ketone.
