Abstract
A sample of (+)- trans-1,2-dihydroxyacenaphthene, a mammalian metabolite of acenaphthylene, was prepared by stereoselective partial hydrolysis of the corresponding synthetic racemic diacetate using the mold, Rhizopus nigricans. The absolute stereochemistry of the trans-diol was established as (1 R,2 R) by conversion to the known dimethyl (2 S,3 S)diacetoxysuccinate.
