ABSTRACT:
A process for the optical resolution of DL-.alpha.-methyl-.beta.-acylthiopropionic acid, which comprises contacting a DL-.alpha.-methyl-.beta.-acylthiopropionic acid of the formula, ##STR1## wherein R.sub.1 is acetyl or benzoyl which may be substituted with a C.sub.1 -C.sub.3 alkyl or a halogen atom, with an optically active amine of the formula, ##STR2## wherein R.sub.2 is methyl, isopropyl or isobutyl, to form diastereoisomeric salts, subjecting the formed diastereoisomeric salts to the fractional crystallization in a solvent to separate the D-acid salt from the L-acid salt, and then contacting the individual diastereoisomeric salt with acid to give D-.alpha.-methyl-.beta.-acylthiopropionic acid and L-.alpha.-methyl-.beta.-acylthiopropionic acid, the former being useful as an intermediate for synthesizing captopril useful as an antihypertensive agent.
