Abstract
Abstract The (S,S) optical isomer of a compound having the general formula ##STR1## wherein R and R 1-5 are as defined herein, is recovered essentially free of the (R,S) and (S,R) isomers, by forming a solution of the esters of the (S,S) and the (R,S) and/or (S,R) isomers of said compound, selectively precipitating an acid salt (e.g. maleate) of the (S,S) ester from the solution, and treating the precipitate to form the desired free acid.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim
148 words
A process for separating the (S,S) diastereoisomer of a compound of the formula ##STR7## from a solution containing said (S,S) isomer and one or both of the corresponding (R,S) and (S,R) diastereoisomers in a non-polar, water-immiscible organic solvent selected from the group consisting of toluene, methylene chloride, diethyl ether, chloroform, ethyl acetate, and mixtures thereof, wherein R 6 is t-butyl or benzyl, comprising (i) reacting said diastereoisomers with an acid, selected from the group consisting of maleic, tartaric, p-nitrocinnamic, cinnamic, hippuric, citric, and 2,4-dichlorobenzoic acids, which forms acid addition salts with said diastereoisomers which salts are characterized in that the salts of the (R,S) and (S,R) diastereoisomers are soluble in said solution and said salt of the (S,S) diastereoisomer is not, under conditions wherein the salt of the (S,S) diastereoisomer selectively precipitates from said solution, and (ii) converting said precipitated salt to the (S,S) compound of formula (A).
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
148 words
A process for separating the (S,S) diastereoisomer of a compound of the formula ##STR7## from a solution containing said (S,S) isomer and one or both of the corresponding (R,S) and (S,R) diastereoisomers in a non-polar, water-immiscible organic solvent selected from the group consisting of toluene, methylene chloride, diethyl ether, chloroform, ethyl acetate, and mixtures thereof, wherein R 6 is t-butyl or benzyl, comprising (i) reacting said diastereoisomers with an acid, selected from the group consisting of maleic, tartaric, p-nitrocinnamic, cinnamic, hippuric, citric, and 2,4-dichlorobenzoic acids, which forms acid addition salts with said diastereoisomers which salts are characterized in that the salts of the (R,S) and (S,R) diastereoisomers are soluble in said solution and said salt of the (S,S) diastereoisomer is not, under conditions wherein the salt of the (S,S) diastereoisomer selectively precipitates from said solution, and (ii) converting said precipitated salt to the (S,S) compound of formula (A).
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
11 words
The process of claim 1 wherein the acid is maleic acid.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
64 words
A process for forming a compound of the formula ##STR8## and having an (S,S) diastereomeric configuration, comprising (i) treating a solution of the (S,S) diastereoisomer of a compound of the formula ##STR9## and one or both of the corresponding (R,S) and (S,R) diastereoisomers in accordance with the process of claim 1; and (ii) converting the (S,S) diastereoisomer obtained by said process into compound (B).
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
11 words
The process of claim 3 wherein the acid is maleic acid.
