  • Publication number: 20040198974
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to the separation of enantiomers of racemates of formula (I). The separation proceeds by applying deemed racemates to continuos enantioselective chromatography like SMB. The methods predominantly is performed for industrial scale production of pure enantiomers of deemed amino acids which are useful intermediates in organic synthesis.

  • Patent number: 6656902
    Abstract: A method for separation of enantiomers of a lactam represented by formula (I): where n and m are each, independently, 0, 1, 2, or 3; P is H or an N-protecting group; and the dotted line represents an optional double bond, by liquid chromatographing the mixture on a chiral stationary phase, where said stationary phase is derivitized with at least one sugar derivative, with an eluent which comprises acetonitrile.

  • Patent number: 5621117
    Abstract: Method for the conversion of the enantiomers of .alpha.-lipoic acid into the corresponding racemic mixture by racemizing the .alpha.-lipoic acid (pure optical isomers of .alpha.-lipoic acid or mixtures of optical isomers of .alpha.-lipoic acid wherein one of the optical isomers is present in excess) at temperatures of between 110.degree. C. and 200.degree. C. at pressures of from normal pressure up to 50 bar for a reaction time of 10 to 48 hours.
