Enantiomerically pure mono acylated derivatives of cis,cis-3,5-dihydroxy-1-(methoxycarbonyl)cyclohexane 1, all-cis-3,5-dihydroxy-4-methyl-1-(methoxycarbonyl)cyclohexane 2 and all-cis-3,5-dihydroxy-4-ethyl-1-(methoxycarbonyl)cyclohexane 3 were obtained upon lipase catalyzed asymmetrization. PPL-catalyzed transesterification of 1 with vinyl acetate led in high yield to the (S)-monoacetate (+)-13. With substrates 2 and 3 this process was slower and gave the (R)-monoacetates (-)-14 and (-)-15; the best results were obtained with SAM II lipase. On the other hand, enantiotoposelective hydrolysis of their diacetates and especially dibutyrates gave useful results only for the 4-substituted substrates and produced the (S)-monoesters.
