Model Studies on the Effect of Aldehyde Structure on Their Selective Trapping by Phenolic Compounds

The reaction among flavor-relevant saturated aldehydes (propanal, 2-methylpropanal, butanal, 2-methylbutanal, 3-methylbutanal, pentanal, hexanal, and glyoxal) and phenolic compounds (resorcinol, 2-methylresorcinol, 2,5-dimethylresorcinol, and orcinol) was

Asymmetric hydrolysis of pro-chiral 3,3-disubstituted 2,4-diacetoxy-cyclohexa-1,4-dienes

Asymmetric enzymatic hydrolysis of pro-chiral 3,3-disubstituted 2,4-diacetoxycyclohexa-1,4-dienes 2 affords in high yields optically pure 2,2-disubstituted 3-acetoxycyclohex-3-enones 1 (>98% ee). Under mild conditions Candida cylindracea lipase (enzyme/substrate ratio = 2%) hydrolyses specifically the pro-S enol ester function of the pro-chiral starting material 2.
