M. Takemoto et K. Achiwa, SYNTHESIS OF OPTICALLY-ACTIVE ALPHA-PHENYLPYRIDYLMETHANOLS WITH BAKERS-YEAST, Chemical and Pharmaceutical Bulletin, 42(4), 1994, pp. 802-805
We have synthesized optically active alpha-phenylpyridylmethanols by u
sing free baker's yeast (FBY) in mater, immobilized baker's yeast (IMB
Y) in water, and IMBY in hexane.
