Resolution of dl-(2-hydroxy-3-cyanopropyl) trimethylammonium chloride (III) was carried out with d-tartaric acid or dibenzoyl-d-tartaric acid, and dextro- and levorotatory compounds of (III) were obtained. Hydrolysis of these optically active (III) with conc. hydrochloric acid by heating in a boiling water bath afforded the corresponding d- and l-(2-hydroxy-3-carboxypropyl) trimethylammonium chloride (VII). Of these, the levorotatory (VII) was found to correspond to the hydrochloride of natural carnitine (VIII). Infrared spectra of these compounds are given.
