An NMR method is described for assaying the enantiomer composition of the pharmacologically active material penicillamine ( 1 ), using tris‐(3‐heptafluorobutyryl‐ d ‐camphorato)europium. The L enantiomer can be detected at levels of 0·4 to 0·5% in DL mixtures. Problems due to the insolubility of penicillamine in nonpolar solvents can be overcome by a two step derivatisation procedure.
