Abstract
A process for obtaining the enantiomeric forms of 4-cyano-1-[N-methyl-N-(2'-{3",4"-dimethoxyphenyl}-ethyl)-amino]-5-methyl-4 -(3',4',5'-trimethoxyphenyl)-hexane and of its salts, in which the acid salt of the compound with an optically active form of O,O'-dibenzoyltartaric acid is first prepared, as a diastereomer mixture, by neutralizing the free base or by double decomposition of another salt of the compound, and the mixture is then separated by crystallization. Thereafter, the pure diastereomers thus obtained are converted to the free bases of the enantiomeric forms, or to salts thereof, in a conventional manner.

A process for obtaining the enantiomeric forms of 4-cyano-1-[N-methyl-N-(2'-{3",4"-dimethoxyphenyl}-ethyl)-amino]-5-methyl-4 -(3',4',5'-trimethoxyphenyl)-hexane and of its salts, wherein the acid salt of the compound with an optically active form of 0,0'-dibenzoyltartaric acid is prepared, as a diastereomer mixture, by neutralizing the free base or by double decomposition of another salt of the compound, and the mixture is separated by crystallization, and the pure diastereomers thus obtained are converted in a conventional manner to the free enantiomeric forms of 4-cyano-1-[N-methyl-N-(2'-{3",4"-dimethoxyphenyl}-ethyl)-amino]-5-methyl-4 -(3',4',5'-trimethoxyphenyl)-hexane or to salts thereof.
