Abstract
Starting from (R)-3-hydroxy-2-(p-methoxybenzyl)propyl acetate (R-(+)-4 ) prepared by enzymatic monoacetylation of 2-(p-methoxybenzyl)propane- 1,3-diol (3) with lipase PS in the presence of vinyl acetate as an ace tyl donor, lactones ((+)- and (-)-6) were obtained. Using the lactones , (+)- and (-)-eptazocine were synthesized.
