9. 6 partially resolved (+)-1a was transformed by reaction with (-)-(S)-1-(1-naphthyl)ethylamine into the corresponding N-[1-(1-naphthyl)ethyl]carboxamide, the absolute configuration of which at C(4) was determined by X-ray diffraction analysis to be R. Within the scope of the present work, enantiomerically pure carboxylic acid (-)-1a has been reacted with (+)-(R)-1-(1-naphthyl)ethylamine, yielding crystalline carboxamide 1c. The X-ray structure analysis of the latter, which has been carried out in the laboratory of Professor Christoph Kratky (Institut für Physikalische Chemie der Universität Graz, Austria) has unequivocally established the absolute configuration at C(4) as S.
