The microbial oxidation of prochiral 2-methyl-1,3-propandiol into (R)-3-hydroxy-2-methyl propionic acid with Acetobacter pasteurianus DSM 8937 is reported. The biotransformation was optimised furnishing (R)-3-hydroxy-2-methyl propionic acid with 97% enantiomeric excess and 100% molar conversion of 5
## Abstract β‐Amino alcohols derived from (1__R__,2__S__)‐norephedrine were synthesized and used as ligands in the catalytic enantioselective diethylzinc addition to benzaldehydes. __N__‐alkylated (1__R__,2__S__)‐norephedrine‐based derivative 3a gave the highest enantioselectivity. The effects of d
## Abstract 1,3‐Dihydroxy‐3‐methyl‐2‐butanone (1), accessible in 5 steps from 2‐methyl‐3‐butyn‐2‐ol, is reduced by baker's yeast to (__R__)‐(+)‐3‐methyl‐1,2,3‐butanetriol (2) with a high enantioselectivity. This chiral building block for the synthesis of various sterols with a modified side chain t
