  • Patent number: 5420283
    Abstract: This invention relates to with a novel synthesis of (R)-2-benzylsuccinic acid 4-[4-(N-t-butoxycarbonyl-methylamino)-piperidine]amide from racemic intermediates. The racemic (R)-2-benzylsuccinic acid 4-[4-(N-t-butoxycarbonyl-methylamino)piperidine]amine is resolved through the formation of diasteromic salts with (S)-cyclohexylethylamine or (R)-cyclohexylethylamine. The pure diasteromic salt can be subsequently hydrolyzed with dilute acid to yield the pure enantiomer of (R)-2-benzylsuccinic acid 4-[4-(N-t-butoxycarbonyl-methylamino) piperidine]amide.
