Abstract
Bioreduction of 3‐substituted‐2‐oxoal‐kanephosphonates by baker's yeast afforded 3‐substituted‐2‐hydroxy‐alkanephosphonates in moderate to good yields and ee value. These compounds could serve as useful chirons for the stereoselective synthesis of phosphorus analogs of biologically active molecules including R‐(—)‐3‐trimethylammonium‐2‐hydroxypropanoic acid and R‐(—)‐3‐ trimethylammonium‐2‐hydroxypropanoic acid. © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
