Abstract

Hydrolytic Kinetic Resolution (HKR) of (±)-(α-Naphthyl) glycidyl ether with (R, R)-salen Co (III) OAc complex provided enatiomerically pure (S)-naphthyl glycidyl ether and (R)-1- naphthyl glycerol; opening of the corresponding pure terminal epoxide with 1-(2- methoxyphenyl) piperizine gave the enantiomerically pure (S)-and (R)-Naftopidil.
