<p>A new, more efficient and highly stereospecific process is described for the preparation of compounds with general formula (R)-(I) and of absolute configuration (R), where the groups M, W, Q and Q1 are as defined in the description, starting from compounds of absolute configuration (S) by hydrolysis, in the presence of acids, of the corresponding esterified derivatives. The (R)-(I) products obtained with the process described herein are chiral synthons useful for the production of enanthiomerically pure drugs. The preparation of (R)-carnitine is also provided.</p> |
