✦ Synopsis


A concise highly diastereo-and enantioselective preparation of homochiral (1S,2R)-1,2-indandiol 1 (75% yield, >99% e.e.) by asymmetric reduction of 1,2-indanedione 5 mediated by fresh resting cells of Trichosporon cutaneum CCT 1903 is reported.

An efficient and easy one-pot reaction from readily available racemic 2-substituted cyclobutanones gave, by means of asymmetric Strecker synthesis in the presence of an amine chiral auxiliary, two major aminonitriles with excellent diastereoselectivity. After separation, the major cis-aminonitriles
