A process for optical resolution of a racemic substituted benzylamine is provided that involves reacting the racemic substituted benzylamine in a solvent with an optically active N-acyl-phenylalanine, -aspartic acid, or -glutamic acid, and separating the diastereomers formed by making use of the difference in the mutual solubilities of the two diastereomer salts which are generated therein. |
