Procedure

36 g (110 mmol) of 1-[5,5,8,8-tetramethyl-4-(2-ethoxyethoxy)-5,6,7,8-tetrahydronaphth-2-yl]prop-2-yn-1-ol (Example 2b) are dissolved in 75 mL of heptane and 10.2 ml of vinyl acetate. 7.26 g of enzyme PS30 are added, and the reaction medium is stirred and heated to 38° C. After 72 hours, the reaction medium is filtered and concentrated under reduced pressure. Two products are separated out by chromatography: 1-[5,5,8,8-tetramethyl-4-(2-ethoxyethoxy)-5,6,7,8-tetrahydronaphth-2-yl]prop-2-yn-1-ol (R)-acetate and (S)-1-[5,5,8,8-tetramethyl-4-(2-ethoxyethoxy)-5,6,7,8-tetrahydronaphth-2-yl]prop-2-yn-1-ol, which will be used for Example 5.18 g (48 mmol) of 1-[5,5,8,8-tetramethyl-4-(2-ethoxyethoxy)-5,6,7,8-tetrahydronaphth-2-yl]prop-2-yn-1-ol (R)-acetate are thus dissolved in 500 mL of a 2% solution of K2CO3 in methanol and the medium is stirred for 3 hours. The reaction medium is then treated with 0.01N hydrochloric acid solution and extracted with ethyl acetate. The residue obtained is purified by chromatography (eluent: 8/2 heptane/EtOAc). A colorless oil is obtained (m=15 g, yield=41%).
