Abstract

The resolution of enantiomers [1a, b] by Dutch Resolution [2] involves the use of an equimolar mixture of two or three structurally similar and homochiral [3] resolving agents. Two major factors contribute to the success of the method. First, the structurally similar resolving agents often form a nonstoichiometric solid solution of crystals.[4, 5] Second, one of the resolving agents can act as a nucleation inhibitor and retains the more soluble ...
