Abstract
A convenient and efficient synthetic route for the preparation of racemic 2-hydroxymehtyl-3-phenylpropionic acid via benzylation,reduction,single protection,oxidation and hydrolysis pathway.Both enantiomers were obtained by optical resolution via crystallization of diastereoisomeric salts with(R)-or(S)-(-)-α-methylbenzylamine in water.
