The present invention provides a process for preparing optically active &agr;-hydroxy acids and derivatives thereof by subjecting the alkylated 1,3-dioxolanones of formula (IV) wherein R1 and R2 are the same or different and are each independently H or C1-6 alkyl; R5 is H, C1-16 alkyl, or unsubstituted or substituted phenyl; and R6 is C1-8 alkyl, C2-7 alkenyl or unsubstituted or substituted benzyl, to either alcoholysis or hydrolysis, in which the alkylated 1,3-dioxolanones are obtained by using 10-camphorsulfonamide as a chiral auxiliary.
本发明提供了一种制备光学活性α-羟基酸及其衍生物的方法,通过将具有化学式(IV)的烷基化1,3-二氧杂环酮暴露于醇解或水解条件下,其中R1和R2相同或不同,分别独立地为H或C1-6烷基;R5为H、C1-16烷基,或未取代或取代的苯基;R6为C1-8烷基、C2-7烯基或未取代或取代的苄基,所述烷基化1,3-二氧杂环酮是通过使用10-樟脑磺酰胺作为手性辅助剂获得的。
