Abstract

The goal of this contribution is to guide the reader through the construction and the understanding of quaternary phase diagrams in the pursuit of optimal conditions for a chiral resolution through cocrystallization in solution. The overall description will be illustrated by experimental results on a system involving RS-2-(2-oxopyrrolidin-1-yl) butanamide as chiral API to be separated, and S-mandelic acid as chiral coformer.
