The correct Answer is:
D
Resolution refers to method of separating a racemic mixture into its enantiomeric constituents. One of the most common methods is to allow a racemic mixture of react with an enantiomer of some other compounds. This is changed a racemic form into a mixture of diastereomers which have dofferent melting points, boiling points and solubilities and hence can be separated by conventional methods.
