A practical method of resolving chiral lactams, e.g. 1 , has been evolved, based on the hydroxymethylation of the lactam, followed by esterification of the product 2 with an optically active N ‐protected amino acid derivative, e.g. N ‐benzyloxycarbonylphenylalanine pentafluorophenyl ester 3 . Chromatographic separation of the unreacted hydroxymethylated lactam 2 and the ester 4 and subsequent dehydroxymethylation of the former and aminolysis of the latter afforded pure enantiomer, ( R )‐ 1 and ( S )‐ 1 .
