Crystallization‐Induced Asymmetric Transformations. Enantiomerically pure (−)‐(R)‐ and (+)‐(S)‐2,3‐Dibromopropan‐1‐ol and Epibromohydrins. A Study of Dynamic Resolution via the Formation of Diastereoisomeric Esters

(S)‐2,3‐Dibromopropan‐1‐ol of high enantiomer excess was obtained by crystallization‐induced asymmetric transformations of racemic 2,3‐dibromopropan‐1‐ol esterified with N‐(1,1′‐biphenyl]‐4‐ylcarbonyl‐L ‐alanine; in particular, an asymmetric transformation of the first type (involving bromide exchange to equilibrate the diastereoisomeric esters) and an asymmetric transformation of the second type (involving a transesterification of diastereoisomeric esters with excess racemic alcohol) were devised.
