S. Gotoh et al., ASYMMETRIC HYDROLYZES OF 1,2-DIACETOXYCYCLOHEXANES BY THE CULTURED SUSPENSION CELLS OF MARCHANTIA-POLYMORPHA, Chemistry Letters, (8), 1994, pp. 1519-1520
The enantioselectivity in the hydrolyses of cis- and trans-1,2-diaceto
xycyclohexanes by the cultured suspension cells of Marchantia polymorp
ha was very high. The acetoxyl groups at the stereogenic center of (R)
-configuration were preferentially hydrolyzed.
