Dynamic kineticresolution (DKR) of a series of sterically hindered allylic alcohols has been conducted with Candida antarctica lipase B (CALB) and ruthenium catalyst 1. The optically pure allylic acetates obtained were subjected to oxidative cleavage to give the corresponding acylated acyloins in high yields without loss of chiral information.

Substituted alpha,beta-unsaturated ketones were selectively reduced to the corresponding allylic alcohols under mild reaction conditions. The allylic alcohols thus obtained were kinetically resolved by lipase catalyzed transesterification in the same pot to afford chiral allylic alcohols in excellent enantioselectivity. Various lipases were screened for this one-pot transesterification of allylic alcohols. Effects of different solvent have also been studied under these conditions. Pseudomonas cepacia lipase immobilized on ceramic particles (PS-C) and on diatomaceous earth (PS-D) catalyzes this transesterification in diisopropyl ether in a highly efficient manner.

Microbially-aided preparation of (S)-2-Methoxycyclohexanone key intermediate in the synthesis of Sanfetrinem
(S) 2-Methoxycyclohexanone 1, useful intermediate in the synthesis of Sanfetrinem 2, is obtained from (S) alpha-benzylidene cyclohexanol 4, derived from the ketone 3 through a short sequence involving as key step yeast reduction of the carbonyl group. The (R) enantiomer of 1 is similarly accessible from the (R) enantiomer of 4 obtained either upon Candida lipolytica-mediated reduction of 3 or from (R,S)-4 by porcine pancreatic lipase catalyzed acetylation with vinyl acetate. Also the saturated carbinols 7 and 8, which accompany 4 in the microbial reduction of 3, are converted into 1 through unexceptional steps. Nocardia opaca, Pichia etchelsii and Mucor subtilissimus provide from 3 upon reduction (S)-configurated 4, 7 and 8 possessing moderate-high ee values. (C) 1997, Elsevier Science Ltd.
