Abstract
Baker's yeast shows chemo-, diastereo- and enantioselectivity in the reduction of mixtures of 2-nitroalkylated cyclohexanones. The resulting optically active, nitro-substituted alcohols can be easily transformed into condensed gamma-lactones. In that way (+)-isomintlactone, 5, in admixture with its constitutional isomer (-)-6 can be obtained.File in questo prodotto:
