To a stirred solution of 1-(5-bromopyridin-3-yl)ethanol (2.0 g) in anhydrous Et2O (50 mL) at 0° C., was vinyl acetate (2 mL), 4A° molecular sieves (2.0 g), Lipase immobilized from Candida Antarctica (200 mg) and the reaction was stirred for 16 h. The catalyst and molecular sieves were filtered off and the solvent was concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by column chromatography (30% EtOAc in hexanes) to provide 1.0 g of (S)-1-(5-bromopyridin-3-yl)ethanol and 1.18 g of (R)-1-(5-bromopyridin-3-yl)ethyl acetate.
