ABSTRACT:
There is provided a process for racemizing an undesirable, optically active compound for conversion to levamisole, namely, l-N-(2-amino-2-phenethyl)-2-methoxyethylamine, by converting the latter to optically active l-(2-methoxyethyl)-4-phenyl-2-imidazolidone, which is next converted to the corresponding optically inactive imidazolidone derivative, which derivative is hydrolyzed to the optically inactive racemate, dl-N-(2-amino-2-phenethyl)-2-methoxyethylamine. The latter can be resolved to obtain the d and l components of the racemate, the d component being utilized directly in levamisole synthesis and the l component being again subjected to the above procedure.
