The present invention concerns a novel process for preparing solriamfetol hydrochloride.

The present invention concerns a novel process for preparing solriamfetol hydrochloride.

Provided herein are methods of altering enantiomeric excess. The methods may include irradiating an atropisomer that includes at least one chiral substituent to alter the enantiomeric excess of the atropisomer. The at least one chiral substituent may be removed following irradiation.

Provided herein are methods of altering enantiomeric excess. The methods may include irradiating an atropisomer that includes at least one chiral substituent to alter the enantiomeric excess of the atropisomer. The at least one chiral substituent may be removed following irradiation.

It is an object of the present invention to provide an excellent method for producing an excellent therapeutic agent. The solution of the present invention is as shown in the following scheme: ##STR00001##
wherein R.sup.1 represents a C1-C6 alkyl group, R.sup.2 represents a C1-C6 alkyl group, and R.sup.3 represents a C1-C6 alkyl group.
