Abstract: | Racemic expectorant guaifenesin, 3-(2-methoxyphenoxy)-1,2-propanediol 2 undergoes spontaneous resolution upon crystallization. This fact is confirmed by thermal analysis (single eutectic V-shape binary melting phase diagram, adequate entropy and free energy characteristics). Racemic 2 could be effectively resolved into (S)- and (R)-2 by a preferential crystallization procedure. Single enantiomer drugs levomoprolol and levotensin were obtained by starting from enantiomeric 2 through the sulfite route. |
