Ej. Ebbers et al., NEW RESOLVING BASES FOR IBUPROFEN AND MANDELIC-ACID - QUALIFICATION BY BINARY PHASE-DIAGRAMS, Tetrahedron : asymmetry, 8(24), 1997, pp. 4047-4057
New resolving bases for ibuprofen 1 and mandelic acid 2 were studied a
nd qualified by their binary phase diagrams of the corresponding salts
. It was shown that analysis of the binary phase diagrams gives a good
prediction for a resolution process. A comparison of resolving bases
revealed that (S)-phenylglycinol (S)-7 is the best resolving base for
ibuprofen 1. By the same procedure, various resolving bases for mandel
ic acid 2 were studied. The known resolving base (S)-MBA 9 was found t
o be the best for this acid. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights
