Popis: | The impact of entropic effects on the classical salt resolution of a 2-arylpyrrolidine is described. We have found that the crystallization of a racemic mixture of the base with tartaric acid led to a salt in which the undesired enantiomer is incorporated into the crystal lattice as a solid solution. The product enantiomer ratio was later determined to be at the thermodynamic well when the racemate is crystallized. In order to circumvent this effect, an efficient two-crystallization resolution was developed. The bulk of the undesired enantiomer is removed in the first crystallization so that the second crystallization can result in material of acceptable optical purity. |
