Journal ArticleDOI
Synthese von optisch aktiven, natürlichen Carotinoiden und strukturell verwandten Naturprodukten. I. Synthese der chiralen Schlüsselverbindung (4R, 6R)‐4‐Hydroxy‐2,2,6‐trimethylcyclohexanon
TL;DR: In this article, the chiral key compound (4R, 6R)-4-hydroxy-2,2,6-trimethylcyclohexanone (7) is described.
Journal ArticleDOI
Production of (+)‐(S)‐Ethyl 3‐Hydroxybutyrate and (‐)‐(R)‐Ethyl 3‐Hydroxybutyrate by Microbial Reduction of Ethyl Acetoacetate
TL;DR: The production of (S)-ethyl 3-hydroxybutyrate from ethyl acetoacetate in higher yields and with higher optical purity than with the usual procedures was achieved by continuous addition of the substrate and sucrose to an aerated suspension of bakers' yeast.
Journal ArticleDOI
Totalsynthese von natürlichem α‐Tocopherol. 1. Mitteilung. Herstellung bifunktioneller, optisch aktiver Synthesebausteine für die Seitenkette mit Hilfe mikrobiologischer Umwandlungen
TL;DR: In this paper, a new total synthesis of natural α-tocopherol includes the synthesis of a corresponding (3 R, 7 R)-configurated C15 side chain to be built up by using twice an optically active C5 unit together with an achiral C5 end part.
Journal ArticleDOI
Technische Verfahren zur Synthese von Carotinoiden und verwandten Verbindungen aus 6-Oxo-isophoron. II. Ein neues Konzept für die Synthese von (3RS, 3′RS)-Astaxanthin
Reinhard Zell,Erich Widmer,Teodor Lukac,Hans Georg Wilhelm Leuenberger,Peter Schönholzer,Emil Albin Broger +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, a new and efficient concept for the total synthesis of (3S, 3'S)- and (3R, 3 'R)-astaxanthin (1a and 1c, resp.) in high overall yield and up to 99,2% enantiomeric purity is described.
Journal ArticleDOI
Production of (+)‐(s)‐ethyl 3‐hydroxybutyrate and (‐)‐(r)‐ethyl 3‐hydroxybutyrate by microbial reduction of ethyl acetoacetate
TL;DR: In this paper, the production of (S)-ethyl 3-hydroxybutyrate (2) from ethyl acetoacetate (1) in higher yields and with higher optical purity than with the usual procedures was achieved by continuous addition of the substrate 1 and sucrose to an aerated suspension of bakers' yeast.
