AbstractChiral intermediates were prepared by biocatalytic processes for the chemical synthesis of four pharmaceutical drug candidates. These include: (i) the microbial reduction of 3,5‐dioxo‐6‐(benzyloxy) hexanoic ethyl ester to (3S,5R)‐dihydroxy‐6‐(benzyloxy) hexanoic acid ethyl ester, an intermediate for a new anticholesterol drug; (ii) synthesis of (2R,3S)‐(‐)‐N‐benzoyl‐3‐phenyl isoserine ethyl ester, a taxol side‐chain synthon; (iii) the microbial oxygenation of 2,2‐dimethyl‐2H‐1‐benzopyran‐6‐carbonitrile to the corresponding (3S,4S) epoxide and (3S,4R)‐trans diol, intermediates for synthesis of potassium channel opener; (iv) the biotransformation of (exo,exo)‐7‐oxabicyclo [2.2.1] heptane‐2,3‐dimethanol to the corresponding chiral lactol and lactone, intermediates for thromboxane A2 antagonist.
