Reaction Steps

A mixture of (±)-1-methyl-4-(2,4,6-trimethoxyphenyl)-3-piperidinone (1.60 g, 5.73 mmoles) and dibenzoyl-D-tartaric acid (2.28 g, 315 mmol) in 10 mL of methanol was heated at reflux temperature under argon atmosphere and it was cooled to room temperature. After stirring overnight at room temperature the precipitated solid was filtered, washed with a small amount of methanol to obtain the first crop of (R)-1-methyl-4-(2,4,6-trimethoxyphenyl)-3-piperidinone dibenzoyl-D-tartaric acid salt (2.65 g). The filtrate solution was concentrated to a volume of ca 6 mL and was stirred at ambient temperature for one day. The second crop of the chiral salt (0.24 g) was obtained by filtering the solid and washed it with a small amount of methanol.
