Abstract

Enantiomers of cis,cis‐decahydro‐2‐naphthyl‐N‐n‐butylcarbamate show stereo‐specific inhibition for acetylcholinesterase and butyrylcholinesterase. For both inhibition reaction, (2__S__,4a__R__,8a__S__)‐cis,cis‐decahydro‐2‐naphthyl‐N‐n‐ butylcarbamate is more potent than (2__R__,4a__S__,8a__R__)‐cis,cis‐decahydro‐2‐naphthyl‐N‐n‐butylcarbamate. Optically pure (2__S__,4a__R__,8a__S__)‐(−)‐ and (2__R__,4a__S__,8a__R__)‐(+)‐cis,cis‐decahydro‐2‐naphthols are resolved by the porcine pancreatic lipase‐catalyzed acetylation of decahydro‐2‐naphthols with vinyl acetate. Absolute configurations and the enantiomeric excess values of (2__S__,4a__R__,8a__S__)‐(−)‐ and (2__R__,4a__S__,8a__R__)‐(+)‐cis,cis‐decahydro‐2‐naphthols are determined from the ^19^F NMR spectra of their Mosher's ester derivatives. We fail to resolve (2__S__,4a__R__,8a__R__)‐ and (2__R__,4a__S__,8a__S__)‐trans,cis‐decahydro‐2‐naphthols from the porcine pancreatic lipase‐catalyzed acetylation of decahydro‐2‐naphthols with vinyl acetate. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
