ABSTRACT:
A process for the optical resolution of (.+-.)-2-hydroxy-4-phenylbutanoic acid which comprises treating (.+-.)-2-hydroxy-4-phenylbutanoic acid with an optically active 1-(p-tolyl)ethylamine or an optically active N-(2-hydroxy)ethyl-.alpha.-methylbenzylamine as a resolving agent is provided by the present invention.
According to the invention, (-)-2-hydroxy-4-phenylbutanoic acid, which is useful as a starting substance for the synthesis of angiotensin converting enzyme-inhibiting pharmaceuticals, can especially be obtained in a highly pure state and in a high yield.
