Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 0.9 g (3.43 mmol) of (±)-2,2-dimethyl-6-(3-chloro-2-hydroxypropyl)-1,3-dioxin-4 -one, 0.9 g of Lipase PS, 150 ml of a 0.1M phosphoric acid buffer solution (pH 7.2) and 450 ml of acetone was stirred at 28° C. for 3 hours. After the product was extracted with ethyl acetate, the solvent was distilled off, and the residue was subjected to silica gel chromatography (an eluent of hexane:vinyl acetate=3:1), thereby obtaining 27 mg (yield 3%) of (-)-2,2-dimethyl-6-(3-chloro-2-hydroxypropyl)-1,3-dioxin-4-one [a compound having the formula (1) in which n was 1, X was Cl, Y was a hydrogen atom, and the substituent was present at the 6-position] and 0.48 g (yield 53%) of (-)-2,2-dimethyl-6-(3-chloro-2-acetoxypropyl)-1,3-dioxin-4-one [a compound having the formula (1) in which n was 1, X was Cl, Y was Ac, and the substituent was present at the 6-position].
