The kinetic enzymatic resolution of various cyclopropane derivatives was systematically investigated. The study focused on synthetically useful cyclopropylmethanols (e.g., 18a/j or 19a/j) as well as some rarely investigated cyclopropanols (e.g., 24/25 or 27). The combination of enantioselective catalytic or diastereoselective synthesis of enantiomerically enriched compounds with enzymatic approaches ultimately led to the most convenient route to enantiomerically pure starting materials. Again, this was especially proven for the synthesis of cyclopropanols 18a/j and 19a/j. Key to the successful investigation was to rigorously establish an analytical tool for the analysis of enantiomeric composition of reaction mixtures.
