| Summary: | In this review, we aim to present new concepts for the revisited separation of enantiomers from racemic compounds and a protocol worth to be followed in designing the preparation of pure enantiomers. We have taken into account not only the influence of the properties (eutectic composition) and characteristics of the reactants (racemic compound, resolving agent), but also the behavior of the resulting diastereomers and the different conditions (e.g., crystallization time, solvents used, solvate-forming compounds, achiral additives, etc.). The examples discussed are resolutions developed by our research team, through which we will try to illustrate the impact of all these considerations, presenting the methodological investigations interpreting recent discoveries and observations. Some special solid-state analytical and structural investigations assisting us in the elucidation and invention design of the resolution processes of some active pharmaceutical ingredients, such as Tetramisole, tofisopam, and Amlodipine, are also shown. |
