Abstract

By addition of diisopropyl fluorophosphate the undesirable hydrolysis of α-acetoxy ketones or alcohols was completely inhibited in the asymmetric reduction using bakers’ yeast cell-free extract, but hardly inhibited in the reduction using the whole cell suspension. The control of stereoselectivity by addition of metal chlorides was also conducted more effectively in the cell-free extract.
