✦ Synopsis


Acyloxy)alkyl esters are commonly employed as prodrugs of carboxylic acid containing compounds. Several optically active (acyloxy)alkyl esters are prepared from a coupling and rearrangement reaction between optically active O-acyl-a-hydroxy acids and 3-chloroperoxybenzoic acid mediated by diisopropylcarbodiimide. The effect of temperature and solvent on the reaction is discussed. An application of the reaction to prepare a prodrug form of ibuprofen is described.

A new method of preparation of optically active a-hydroxy ketone derivatives has been developed. Incubation of (Z)-3-propionyloxy4-benzyloxy-2-pentcne (la) with lipasc OF gave optically pure (R)-cnol propionatc la, which in bun was converted without raccmization to @)-ketone 2a by the aid ofLiAlH4.
