Abstract
Abstract Racemic 1,2-epoxy-3-(2-methoxyphenyloxy)-propane 1 undergoes spontaneous resolution upon crystallization. This fact is confirmed by coincidence of the IR spectra of racemic and scalemic crystalline samples of 1 , by thermal analysis (single eutectic V-shape binary melting phase diagram), and X-ray analysis (space group P 2 1 2 1 2 1 , Z = 4). Racemic 1 could be resolved into ( S )-(+)- and ( R )-(−)- 1 by a preferential crystallization procedure.
