Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim
61 words
A method to prepare 3-(2,2-dichloroethenyl)-2,2-dimethylcyclopropanecarboxylic acid containing at least 50% (+)-cis isomer which comprises neutralizing racemic cis, trans-3-(2,2-dichloroethenyl)-2,2-dimethylcyclopropanecarboxylic acid containing at least 40 percent cis isomers with an alkaloid base selected from 1-ephedrin or quinine in a solvent selected from ethyl acetate or acetonitrile, cooling the resulting solution, isolating the precipitated salt, and hydrolyzing the salt to produce the enriched acid.
Claim 2
Independent Claim
61 words
A method to prepare 3-(2,2-dichloroethenyl)-2,2-dimethylcyclopropanecarboxylic acid containing at least 50% (+)-cis isomer which comprises neutralizing racemic cis, trans-3-(2,2-dichloroethenyl)-2,2-dimethylcyclopropanecarboxylic acid containing at least 40 percent cis isomers with an alkaloid base selected from 1-ephedrin or quinine in a solvent selected from ethyl acetate or acetonitrile, cooling the resulting solution, isolating the precipitated salt, and hydrolyzing the salt to produce the enriched acid.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
17 words
The method of claim 1 wherein the acid and alkaloid base are employed in approximately equimolar amounts.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
17 words
The method of claim 1 wherein the alkaloid base is quinine and the solvent is ethyl acetate.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
16 words
The method of claim 1 wherein the alkaloid base is 1-ephedrine and the solvent is acetonitrile.
