Abstract

Biotransformation carried out by apples (<em>Malus silvestris</em>) resulted in enantiospecific hydrolysis of racemic acetates, the derivatives of secondary aromatic-aliphatic or terpenic alcohols. The alcohols are oxygenated to ketones (reversible reaction). The differences in the rate of the hydrolysis of enantiomeric esters enable isolation of pure, unreacted R-acetates.
