반응 단계

In a preferred embodiment, (RS)-N-benzyl-N-methyl-2-phenylglycinamide (10.0 g) was treated with di(o-toluoyl)-L-tartaric acid (15.2 g) in methanol (167 mL) at 20° C. The precipitated the salt was filtered and washed with methanol, then dried providing (S)-N-benzyl-N-methyl-2-phenylglycinamide di(o-toluoyl)-L-tartrate (11.73 g, 46.6%) with 92.7% d.e. (chiral HPLC). This material (1.00 g) was reslurried in hot methanol (8.8 ml) to provide (S)-N-benzyl-N-methyl-2-phenylglycinamide di(o-toluoyl)-L-tartrate with 99% d.e. (0.79 g, 79% recovery) after filtration, washing and drying. The tartrate salts formed as described maybe broken to provide the free amine of formula C, i.e. (S)-N-benzyl-N-methyl-2-phenylglycinamide, which may be advantageously purified by the formation of a salt with an achiral acid in the presence of appropriate solvents, e.g. precipitation of (S)-N-benzyl-N-methyl-2-phenylglycinamide hydrochloride from mixtures of propan-2-ol and tert-butyl methyl ether as described.
