Resolution by distillation , in contrast to classical resolution by recrystallization, may be easy to perform. In the case of heterocyclic carboxylic acids 1 (X = O, S. n = 1,2), the diastereomeric amino acid amides 2 , which differ in boiling point by 7 K under reduced pressure, were separated by fractional distillation. Remarkably. both enantiomers of 2‐tetrahydrofurancarboxylic acid 1a (X = 0, n = 1) were obtained by the distillation of the diastereomers of 2a (R = i Pr. R′ = Me) with 99% optical purity.
