ABSTRACT:
A new process for the optical resolution of racemic mixtures of .alpha.-naphthyl-propionic acids of formula ##STR1## This process comprises reacting a racemic mixture of a compound of formula ##STR2## with an optically active substance of formula R.sub.4 --NH.sub.2 (III), said substance being a .beta.-aminoalcohol, thus forming a pair of diastereoisomeric amides which are resolved into the single diastereoisomers by fractional crystallization. The obtained single diastereoisomeric amide is then hydrolyzed to give the desired optically active .alpha.-naphthyl-propionic acid of formula ##STR3## In the above compound I.fwdarw.III and VI, R.sub.1 is (C.sub.1-6)alkyl, R.sub.2 stands for hydrogen, halogen, mercapto, (C.sub.1-6)alkylthio, phenylthio, benzylthio, (C.sub.1-6)alkylsulfonyl, benzenesulfonyl, benzenesulfonyl substituted by halogen or (C.sub.1-4)alkyl, R.sub.3 is a reactive group and R.sub.4 is the residue of a primary or secondary alcohol.
