Abstract
This invention relates to a method of splitting 1-amino-alkan-2-ol compounds of general formula: ##STR1## in which the group R can represent a wide variety of linear, branched or cyclic alkyl groups, comprising up to about 20 to 25 carbon atoms and preferably 1 to 15 carbon atoms. These groups can possibly have one or more double bonds, one or more hetero-atoms such as oxygen or sulfur so long as these are to be found separated from the asymmetric carbon atom by at least one carbon link and do not destroy the aliphatic nature of the group R. These groups can also be substituted by one or more halogen atoms such as chlorine or lower alkoxy groups such as methoxy or ethoxy groups.
