摘要

The reiterative high temperature co-sublimation of an enantiopure or an enantioenriched alpha-amino acid mixed with racemic alpha-amino acids leads to deracemization of the latter. A synergistic effect is observed for complex mixtures, and the sense of the handedness is, for all compounds, identical to that of the enantioenriched starting material.
