Baker's yeast reduction of methyl substituted γ- and δ-keto acids 1-6 proceeds in a mode depending upon subtle substrate modifications; it affords γ-lactones of modest ee and de values and highly functionalized, enantiomerically pure δ-lactones, such as 13 from which cis-(+)-rose oxide 23a has been prepared.
