The subject invention pertains to novel enantiomerically pure compounds, and compositions comprising the compounds, for the treatment of cardiac arrhythmias. The subject invention further concerns a method of making and purifying the compounds. The enantiomerically purified compounds, and compositions of these compounds, exhibit unexpectedly distinct and advantageous characteristics, such as a markedly superior ability to reduce or inhibit ventricular premature beats, as compared to racemic mixtures of the compounds. |
