ABSTRACT
A novel one-pot deracemization method using a bifunctional chiral agent (BCA) is proposed for the first time to convert a racemate to the desired enantiomer. Specifically, chiral α, (α-diphenyl-2-pyrrolidinemethanol) formed enantiospecific cocrystals with racemic dihydromyricetin, and used its own alkaline catalysis to catalyze the racemization between the (2R,3R)-enantiomer and (2S,3S)-enantiomer in solution, achieving a one-pot spontaneous deracemization. This strategy was also successfully extended to the deracemization of three other racemic compound drugs (R,S)-carprofen, (R,S)-indoprofen, and (R,S)-indobufen. The one-pot deracemization method based on the BCA strategy provides a feasible approach to address the incompatibility between cocrystallization and racemization reactions that are commonly encountered in the cocrystallization-induced deracemization process and opens a new window to develop essential enantiomerically pure pharmaceutical products with atom economy.
