Abstract Novel ethers of organic compounds containing chiral atoms of the formula ##STR1## wherein A is a hydrocarbonated chain of 1 to 10 groups, the said chain containing one or more heteroatoms, one or more unsaturations, the assembly of the groups constituting the chain may represent a mono- or polycyclic system, including a system of the spiro or endo type, the chain A can contain one or more chiral atoms or the lactone moiety can present a chirality due to the dissymetric spatial configuration of the whole of the molecule and Z is selected from the group consisting of primary, secondary or tertiary alcohol moiety containing at least an asymetric carbon atom, a phenol moiety substituted comprising at least one asymetric carbon atom and an substituted alcohol or phenol moiety with a chirality due to the dissymetric spatial configuration of the whole of the molecule, with the proviso Z is not (R) or (S) α-cyano-3-phenoxy-benzyl when A is ##STR2## which are useful for the resolution of compounds of the formulae ##STR3## wherein A and Z have the above definitions and X is selected from the group consisting of hydrogen and alkyl of 1 to 4 carbon atoms.
An ether containing chiral atoms having a formula selected from the group consisting of ##STR18## wherein Y and Y' are individually selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, fluorine, bromine, chlorine and alkyl of 1 to 6 carbon atoms, Z is selected from the group consisting of a α-cyano-3-phenoxy-benzyl and α-ethynyl-3-phenoxy-benzyl and Z' is selected from the group consisting of 2-methyl-3-(2-propen-1-yl)-4-oxo-cyclopent-2-enyl, α-methyl-3-phenoxy-benzyl and 2-isopropyl-5-methyl-cyclohexyl with the proviso that Z is not (R) or (S) α-cyano-3-phenoxy-benzyl when Y and Y' are both methyl.
