Disopyramide was resolved by fractional crystallization of its diastereomeric bitartrate salts from methanol-acetone. Diastereomeric sulfonamides prepared from (+)-camphor-10-sulfonyl chloride and the primary amines obtained by LiAlH4 reduction of the resolved bases were separable by high-performance LC and were used to show that within experimental error resolution of disopyramide was complete. The absolute configuration was determined by X-ray crystallography. (+)-[(2R)-(-)-4-(Diisopropylamino)-2-(2-pyridyl)-2-phenylbutyramide (+)-(2R,3R)-bitartrate] crystallizes in space group P212121: a = 14.789 (4), b = 18.151 (4), c = 9.878 (2) A; Z = 4: Dx = 1.225, Dm (flotation C6H6/CCl4) = 1.226 g cm-3. The structure was solved by direct methods. The enantiomeric bitartrates were tested for antiarrhythmic properties. The enantiomeric bitartrate salts were equally effective in prolonging the effective refractory period (ERP) of rabbit ventricle. At 3 x 10(-6) M, the (-)-bitartrate [from (2S)-(+)-disopyramide] increased the ERP 21.8 +/- 6.3 ms and the (+)-bitartrate [from (2R)-(-)-disopyramide] increased the ERP 25.8 +/- 3.6 ms. At 1.5 x 10(-5) M no significant difference was noted, as the increases in the ERP were 41.2 +/- 8.9 and 50.5 +/- 6.3 ms for the (-)- and %+)-bitartrate, respectively.

Bisphenoxatelluronium dinitrate is monoelinie, P21/c: a = 11.638(4), b = 28.266(8), c = 8.546(3) å, β = 119.73(2)°, z = 4 at t = 22°. All atoms including hydrogen were located. The two ring systems, I and II, are folded along their Te‐O axes, 147° and 163°, respectively. The average ring bond distances are: Te‐C = 2.091, C‐C = 1.377, C‐O = 1.370 Å. Each Te is bonded to one NO3 group, Te1‐ON1 = 2.485(5), Te2‐ON4 = 2.393(4) Å, and an oxygen bridge connects the ring systems, Te1‐OB = 1.966(4), Te2‐OB = 2.001(4) Å, Te1‐OB‐Te2 = 125.0(2)°. The bond distances and angles of the structure are compared to those of related compounds.
