Abstract: | Both (R)- and (S)-4-hydroxypentylaminoacetamide have been synthesized by reductive amination of glycinamide on the γ-valerolactols corresponding to (R)- and (S)-γ-valerolactone, respectively. These enantiomeric lactones were readily obtained in high enantiomeric excess (ee) by enzymic porcine pancreatic lipase (PPL) kinetic resolution of rac-methyl γ-hydroxyvalerate. © 1992 Wiley-Liss, Inc. |
