摘要:
A process for preparing a compound having a formula (4) or (5), in either optically-enriched or racemic form, wherein R?1, R2, R3 and R4¿ are independently selected from hydrogen, alkyl, aryl, alkaryl, aralkyl and acyl groups, comprises mixing with a plant extract an oxidative cyclisation precursor of the said compound.
摘要:
An optically-purified enantiomer of the lactone 4-hydroxy-2-oxabicyclo-[3.3.0]oct-7-en-3-one or an acylate thereof can be obtained by biotransformation. It is a useful synthon in the preparation of an enantiomer of 3-hydroxymethyl-2-hydroxycyclopentene that can be used to prepare carbocyclic nucleosides as a desired enantiomer.
摘要:
A process for the product of a 2,3-cis-dihydroxycycloalkane-1-carboxamide, comprises dihydroxylation of the corresponding cycloalkene-1-carboxamide. Some products are new. The stereoselective dihydroxylation is surprising.
摘要:
A novel azlactone of formula (3), or the opposite enatiomer, wherein R?1, R2, R3¿ and X are each a substituent, undergoes biotransformation, using suitable enzymatic activity, in the presence of a base YH to form an N-acyl-amino-acid of formula (2), wherein Y is a group derivable from the base YH and convertable to OH. An amino-acid of formula (1), or the opposite enantiomer, can be prepared in high e.e. from a compound of formula (2) by converting Y to OH.
