Enzymatic desymmetrization of meso-1α,4α-dihydroxy-cis-decalins
Chenevert, Robert,Courchesne, Gabriel,Jacques, Frederic
, p. 3587 - 3590 (2007/10/03)
The stereoselective acetylation of meso-decalindiols 1 and 2 by vinyl acetate in the presence of Candida antarctica lipase gave monoester (1R,4S,4aR,8aS)-5 and (1R,4S,4aR,8aS)-6 in high enantiomeric excess (ee ≥98%). The hydrolysis of the corresponding meso-diacetates 3 and 4 in the presence of porcine liver esterase in phosphate buffer provided the opposite enantiomers.
Enantioselective α-deprotonation-rearrangement of meso-epoxides
Hodgson, David M.,Lee, Gary P.
, p. 1015 - 1016 (2007/10/03)
Enantioselective α-deprotonation-rearrangement of medium-sized (8-, 9- and 10-membered) cycloalkene-derived meso-epoxides using organolithiums in the presence of (-)-sparteine gives bicyclic alcohols in good yields and ees.
