A resolution method of a
levocetirizine chiral intermediates belongs to the technical field of fine organic
chemical engineering. The method comprises the following specific steps: adding racemic 1-[(4-chlorophenyl)benzyl]
piperazine and chiral
ionic liquid in a reaction container to react at 10-100 DEG C for 1-10 hours, extracting with
toluene for layering, adjusting the pH value of the aqueous phase with 10wt% of
sodium hydroxide solution to 11-12, extracting with
toluene again, and concentrating to crystallize after the post-treatment, thus obtaining the product. The chiral
ionic liquid is used as the
solvent and resolving agent, the technology is easy to operate, the efficiency is high, the yield of three wastes is low, the yield of the product is more than 34%, the melting range of the product is narrow, the
melting point is 94-96 DEG C, the
specific rotation [alpha] D is not more than -21.5 degrees (C1,
toluene), the optical purity is not less than 99.0%, and the content is not less than 99.0%. The post-treatment is convenient, the
ionic liquid can be used repeatedly and the resolution method is an economical, practical, green and
environmentally friendly technology.
