TL;DR: In this article, a method to produce (R)-(−)-2-hydroxy-4-phenylbutanoic acid ethyl ester 1b was developed.
Abstract: A novel method to produce (R)-(−)-2-hydroxy-4-phenylbutanoic acid ethyl ester 1b has been developed. 2-Oxo-4-phenylbutanoic acid ethyl ester 1a is reduced to 1b by the cell cultures of Daucus carota in high enantiomeric excess and yield.
