Enantioselective Microbial Reduction of 5-Acetylisoxazolines - A Novel Method for Stereochemical Control on Yeast Reduction

The kinetics and the stereoselectivity of the reduction by baker′s yeast of racemic 5‐acetyl‐4,5‐dihydro‐3‐phenylisoxazole 1 to the corresponding alcohol in 2‐propanol/water mixtures are strongly dependent from the 2‐propanol/water ratio; at a ratio of 4.0, the reduction allows a kinetic resolution...

Zusammenfassung:The kinetics and the stereoselectivity of the reduction by baker′s yeast of racemic 5‐acetyl‐4,5‐dihydro‐3‐phenylisoxazole 1 to the corresponding alcohol in 2‐propanol/water mixtures are strongly dependent from the 2‐propanol/water ratio; at a ratio of 4.0, the reduction allows a kinetic resolution leading to alcohol 2 and ketone (R)‐1 Subsequent reduction of (R)‐1 with yeast in water and with Aspergillus niger leads to alcohols 3 and 4 with high ee.
