Abstract

2-Nitroalcohols were efficiently resolved by Lipase catalysed transesterification process. This protocol was successfully applied to the synthesis of taxol side chain and (-)-bestatin in overall yields of 40% and 20% respectively.

Keywords: Taxol Side Chain, (-)-Bestatin, lipase catalysed kinetic resolution
