The title compound as well as some derivatives have been synthesized for th
e first time in optically active form by means of a chemoenzymatic transfor
mation used to induce asymmetry in achiral precursors. The enantio- and dia
stereomeric purity has been determined by HPLC and NMR techniques. (C) 1998
