Abstract

Both enantiomers of (2R∗, 3S∗)-2-allyloxy-3, 4, 5, 6-tetrahydro-2H-pyran-3-ol, a precursor of chiral auxiliary for asymmetric addition of organometallics, and its analog,(2S, 3S)-2- ethoxy-3, 4, 5, 6-tetrahydro-2H-pyral-3-ol were prepared by biocatalytic optical resolutions. Lipase-catalyzed enantioselective acetylation of the racemate in organic solvent worked well with a high enantioselectivity. Pseudomonas cepacia lipase was most effective (E= ...
