Patent number: 5260482Abstract: A process for obtaining a substantially pure enantiomer of an aryl-substituted aliphatic carboxylic acid is described. The process combines an aryl substituted aliphatic carboxylic acid, a base and water in an inert solvent to make a hydrated salt of the said acid. The process leads to enhanced yield of an enantiomerically enriched hydrated salt of the carboxylic acid.Type: GrantFiled: October 14, 1992Date of Patent: November 9, 1993Assignee: Ethyl CorporationInventors: Patricia Pringle, William T. Murray, Douglas K. Thompson, Azfar A. Choudhury, Deepak R. Patil

Patent number: 5256816Abstract: A process for obtaining a substantially pure enantiomer of an aryl-substituted aliphatic carboxylic acid is described. In this process, the aryl-substituted aliphatic carboxylic acid is reacted with an inorganic base in the presence of an organic base to substantially enrich the precipitate in one of the enantiomers and an improved yield. Substantially pure, enantiomeric salt is separated, leaving a mother liquor comprising the solvent and aryl-substituted aliphatic carboxylic acid enriched in the other enantiomer.Type: GrantFiled: October 14, 1992Date of Patent: October 26, 1993Assignee: Ethyl CorporationInventors: William T. Murray, Robert E. Young, Azfar A. Choudhury, Deepak R. Patil

Patent number: 5235095Abstract: An improved process for the separation of enantiomers of a racemic mixture of certain aliphatic carboxylic acids or esters thereof is disclosed. The process involves: (i) forming a salt solution comprising said racemic mixture of a C.sub.1 to C.sub.6 linear or branched aliphatic carboxylic acid and an organic or inorganic base; (ii) treating said salt solution with one-half molar equivalent of a chiral organic nitrogenous base having a base strength no stronger than said organic or inorganic base; and (iii) precipitating from the reaction solution formed in step (ii) the less soluble diastereomeric salt, the improvement being adding to the salt solution of step (ii) an inert organic or inorganic base that is soluble in the salt solution.Type: GrantFiled: January 24, 1992Date of Patent: August 10, 1993Assignee: Ethyl CorporationInventors: Abbas Kadkhodayan, Deepak R. Patil, Azfar A. Choudhury

Patent number: 5235101Abstract: An improved process for the separation of enantiomers of a mixture of certain aliphatic carboxylic acids or esters thereof is disclosed. The process involves adding an inert liquid to the reaction solution formed by: (i) forming a salt solution comprising said racemic mixture of a C.sub.1 to C.sub.6 linear or branched aliphatic carboxylic acid and an organic or inorganic base; (ii) treating said salt solution with less that equimolar equivalents of a chiral organic nitrogenous base; (iii) precipitating from the reaction solution formed in step (ii) the less soluble diastereomeric salt; (iv) addition of a countersolvent to the slurry formed in step (iii); (v) extracting the more soluble diastereomeric salt or the salt of carboxylic acid and the base added in step (i) into the countersolvent. The inert liquid and the countersolvent must be of sufficiently different density.Type: GrantFiled: January 24, 1992Date of Patent: August 10, 1993Assignee: Ethyl CorporationInventors: Deepak R.
