Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 11
Claim 1
Independent Claim 57 words
A process for the resolution of DL-cis or DL-trans chrysanthemic acids comprises reacting DL-cis or DL-trans chrysanthemic acid with D or L N-methyl-ephedrine in an organic solvent, recovering the crystallized salt of LN-methyl-ephedrine and D-cis or D-trans chrysanthemic acid or DN-methyl-ephedrine and L-cis or L-trans chrysanthemic acid and recovering from the salt the corresponding resolved chrysanthemic acid.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 57 words
A process for the resolution of DL-cis or DL-trans chrysanthemic acids comprises reacting DL-cis or DL-trans chrysanthemic acid with D or L N-methyl-ephedrine in an organic solvent, recovering the crystallized salt of LN-methyl-ephedrine and D-cis or D-trans chrysanthemic acid or DN-methyl-ephedrine and L-cis or L-trans chrysanthemic acid and recovering from the salt the corresponding resolved chrysanthemic acid.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 42 words
The process of claim 1 wherein DL-cis chrysanthemic acid is reacted with L or D N-methyl-ephedrine, the salt of L N-methyl-ephedrine D-cis chrysanthemic acid or D N-methyl-ephedrine and L-cis chrysanthemic acid crystallizes and D-cis chrysanthemic acid or L-cis chrysanthemic acid is recovered.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 23 words
The process of claim 2 wherein the solvent is selected from the group consisting of toluene, ethyl acetate, acetone, isopropanol and isopropyl ether.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 11 words
The process of claim 2 wherein the solvent is isopropyl ether.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 10 words
The process of claim 2 wherein the solvent is toluene.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 43 words
The process of claim 1 wherein DL-trans chrysanthemic acid is reacted with L or D N-methyl-ephedrine, the salt of L N-methyl-ephedrine and D-trans chrysanthemic acid or D N-methyl-ephedrine and L-trans chrysanthemic acid crystallizes and D-trans chrysanthemic acid or L-trans chrysanthemic acid is recovered.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 14 words
The process of claim 6 wherein the organic solvent is toluene or isopropyl ether.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 36 words
The process of claim 1 wherein the mother liquors of crystallization are evaporated to dryness to obtain the non-crystallizing salt of N-methyl-ephedrine and chrysanthemic acid and recovering from the said salt the corresponding resolved chrysanthemic acid.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 25 words
A compound selected from the group consisting of D N-methyl-ephedrine L-trans chrysanthemate, L N-methyl-ephedrine D-trans chrysanthemate, L N-methyl-ephedrine D-cis chrysanthemate and D N-methyl-ephedrine L-cis chrysanthemate.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim 25 words
A compound selected from the group consisting of D N-methyl-ephedrine L-trans chrysanthemate, L N-methyl-ephedrine D-trans chrysanthemate, L N-methyl-ephedrine D-cis chrysanthemate and D N-methyl-ephedrine L-cis chrysanthemate.
