First chiral synthesis of the N-terminal amino acid congener of nikkomycin Z based on lipase-catalyzed enantioselective acetylation of a primary alcohol possessing …
A stereoselective synthesis of a versatile chiral synthon possessing two stereogenic centers,(2S, 3S)-3-[2-(5-benzyloxypyridyl)]-2-methyl-1, 3-propane diol 12 (> 99% ee), was achieved by using a chemo-enzymatic method. The conversion of (2S, 3S)-12 to the ...
