1.1 g (0.0051 mol) of methyl 8-methoxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-2-naphthoate are dissolved in 39 ml of tert-butanol, and 112 ml of phosphate buffer at pH 7 are added to the solution prepared in this way. The pH of the solution, which rises to 7.3-7.5, is lowered to 7.1 by the addition of 1N HCl. 1.25 g of Sigma PPL enzyme (known as porcine pancreatic lipase type II, crude, Sigma L-3126--46 U/mg using triacetin) are added to the mixture. The pH tends to drop as the reaction progresses, but is kept constant by the addition of a 0.25N solution of NaOH, the pH being controlled by an automatic titration apparatus. After 7 hours, the mixture is poured into a 5% solution of sodium bicarbonate in order to stop the reaction by inactivation of the enzyme. Extraction is carried out with ethyl ether and the two phases are separated. The organic phase contains the unreacted ester principally of (S) configuration, which can be recovered. The aqueous phase is acidified with 10% sulfuric acid and extracted with chloroform; the organic phase is filtered on Celite and dried over sodium sulfate and the solvent is evaporated off under reduced pressure to give 0.42 g of the title acid. ee 98% (HPLC performed under conditions (d)).
