Abstract
For preparation of all four enantiomers of 2-(4-hydroxybenzyl)-1-cyclo hexanol (1a-4a) by biotransformation reactions, Saccharomyces cerevisi ae (SC) and pig pancreatic lipase (PPL) were used in aqueous media. Th e THP-protected substrates (5b, 6b and 7b) gave products with a good e nantiomeric excess comparable with that of the CH3-protected substrate s (5c,6c and 7c), whereas the deprotection was much easier in case of the THP-protected compounds.
