Russian Chemical Bulletin Aims and scope

Abstract

Acetylation of (±)-1-phenylnon-2-yn-1-ol, (±)-1-phenylhept-1-yn-3-ol, and (±)-1-phenylundec-4-yn-3-ol ((±)-5) in the presence of lipase from Candida cylindracea (CCL) proceeds slowly to give products with ee ≤20%. The acetates of these alcohols are hydrolyzed in the presence of porcine pancreatic lipase (PPL) equally unsatisfactorily. The (η6-arene)tricarbonylchromium complex of alcohol (±)-5 is acetylated in the presence of CCL up to ∼22% conversion to give (R)-acetate whose oxidative decomplexation followed by saponification results in alcohol (R)-(–)-5 with ee ≥95%. The configuration of alcohols (–)-5 and (+)-5 was determined by NMR spectroscopy of their esters with (R)- and (S)-Mosher"s acids.
