RACEMIC SEPARATION OF 2,6-TRANS-DIMETHYLMORPHOLINE

摘要

The invention relates to a method for producing optically active trans-2,6-dimethylmorpholine by (i) reacting racemic trans-2,6-dimethylmorpholine with D-mandelic acid, (ii) separating the formed salt from D-mandelic acid and the one enantiomer of the trans-2,6-dimethylmorpholine from the other enantiomer of the trans-2,6-dimethylmorpholine and (iii) isolating the desired optically active trans-2,6-dimethylmorpholine.
