Participants

Reaction Steps

(1°) reacting (±)-benzhydrylsulfinylacetic acid with (-)-α-methylbenzylamine to give the (-)-benzhydrylsulfinylacetate of (-)-α-methylbenzylamine (the reaction advantageously being carried out in the presence of a small excess of amine relative to the stoichiometric conditions, and more particularly with a molar ratio amine/acid of between 1.02/1 and 1/15/1 and preferably of between 1.05/1 and 1.10/1),
