  • Abstract
    Enantioselective reductions of p-X-C6H4C(O)CH2N3 (X = H, Cl, Br, CH3, OCH3) mediated by Rhodotorula glutinis and Geotrichum candidum afforded the corresponding alcohols with complementary R and S configurations, respectively, in excellent yield and enantiomeric excesses. The obtained (R)-azidoalcohols are important starting materials for preparation of natural products and valuable pharmaceutical compounds such as (R)-Tembamide and (R)-Aegeline.
