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 γ-lactones.In that way (+)-is
Total synthesis of the monoterpenes (-)-mintlactone and (+)-isomintlactone
Carda, Miguel,Marco, J. Alberto
, p. 9789 - 9800 (2007/10/02)
The first total stereodirected synthesis of the monoterpenes (-)-mintlactone and (+)-isomintlactone from the same chiral starting product is described. A stereoselective, radical-mediated ring closure was the key step in both syntheses.
