Abstract
Baker's yeast reduction of lactones 8, a-d proceeds under kinetic reso lution to give (S) 11, a-d of low ee values, increasing with the lengt h of the side chain, occurring the double bond saturation i n anti fas hion on the beta '' face, as indicated by the obtainment from 4 and 6 of 5 and 7, respectively.
