Design an enantiomeric resolution of racemic 2-phenylpropanoic acid using a pure enan-tiomer of 1-phenylethanamine as resolving agent.

Question:

Design an enantiomeric resolution of racemic 2-phenylpropanoic acid using a pure enan-tiomer of 1-phenylethanamine as resolving agent. (assume that a solvent can be found in which the diasteromeric salts have different solubilities.) Discuss the importance of amine basicity to the success of this scheme.(See Sec.6.8.)
