## Abstract A new highβperformance liquid chromatographic method with diode array detection was developed for the separation and simultaneous determination of the carrot polyacetylenes falcarindiol (FaDOH), falcarindiol 3βacetate (FaDOAc) and falcarinol (FaOH) in carrot root extracts. The optimal c
Optically pure B-hydroxysulfoximines were treated in toluene solution at -789~ with 2 equiv. of gaseous d i borane. The resulting borane complexes were used to reduce prochiral ketones at -78Β°C; alcohols with optical purities ranging from 3 to 82% were obta i ned .
