Abstract

The separation of symmetric, remote, secondary diol stereoisomers bu stereoselective enzyme-catalyzed acetylation with acetic anhydride in anhydrous, low polarity organic solvents or by stereoselective enzyme-catalyzed hydrolysis of the corresponding peracetate in aqueous media is described. Whether or not an alcohol is acetylated or an acetate is hydrolyzed is determined solely by its own stereochemical arrangement and not by the stereochemistry at any other stereogenic center
