Page/Page column 14, (2008/12/06)
A fluorine-containing benzaldehyde is reacted with an alkyl Grignard reagent to convert it to a magnesium alkoxide of racemic, fluorine-containing, benzyl alcohol, and subsequently the magnesium alkoxide is reacted with phthalic anhydride to obtain a phthalate half ester of racemic, fluorine-containing, benzyl alcohol, and the half ester is optically resolved by optically active 1-phenylethylamine, and then the ester group is hydrolyzed, thereby producing an optically active, fluorine-containing, benzyl alcohol.
