An efficient method for the preparation of (1R,4S)-(+)- 4-hydroxy-2-cyclopentenyl acetate, a useful chiral starting material for the synthesis of prostaglandins, is described. A mixture of cis- and trans-3,5-diacetoxycyclopentene, readily obtainable on a preparative laboratory scale, was used as the substrate for the hydrolysis with commercially available pig pancreatic lipase (PPL). PPL hydrolyzed the substrate enantioselectively and substrate-selectively, yielding mainly the (+)-cis-monoacetate and trans-diacetate (Method A). The former was recrystallized to give the diastereomerically and optically pure (+)- cis-monoacetate. Ester exchange of cis/trans mixture of the diacetate in an organic solvent using enzymes as batch or flow system was also investigated (Method B). Method A was applicable to 0.25 mol of substrate, and yielded 0.127 mol (18 g, 51%) of optically pure (+)-monoacetate with recycling recovered materials.
描述了一种高效制备(1R,4S)-(+)-4-羟基-2-环戊烯基乙酸酯的方法,这是一种用于合成前列腺素的有用手性起始材料。使用的底物是cis和trans-3,5-二乙酰氧基环戊烯的混合物,这种混合物可以在实验室规模上轻松获得。将其用商业可得的猪胰脂肪酶(PPL)水解。PPL对底物进行了选择性水解,主要产生(+) - cis-单乙酸酯和trans-二乙酸酯(方法A)。前者经过重结晶得到立体异构体和光学纯的(+) - cis-单乙酸酯。还研究了在有机溶剂中利用酶进行的cis/trans-二乙酸酯混合物的酯交换,采用批量或流动系统(方法B)。方法A适用于0.25摩尔的底物,产生0.127摩尔(18克,51%)的光学纯(+) - 单乙酸酯,并回收再利用材料。
