Reaction Steps

The hydrogenation of 40.0 g of ketopantolactone, dissolved in 110 ml of toluene, with 100 ml of catalyst solution prepared according to Example 36 was carried out as described in Example 29. After a hydrogenation time of 2 hours the mixture was worked-up analogously to Example 2. pure (R)-pantolactone being obtained. [α]D20 =-47.9°. Optical purity 92.8%.
