(1S)-1-(4-iodophenyl)ethanol

Conditions: temp:0.00; pressure:0.00; stir:; See reaction.notes.procedure_details.

Procedure: Starting from 4-iodophenyl methyl ketone, which is reduced to the racemic alcohol and converted to (±)-1-(4-iodophenyl)ethyl chloroacetate, the racemic ester is subjected to stereoselective enzyme hydrolysis. The remaining (S)-isomer of the ester is separated from the (R)-alcohol and transesterified to give (S)-1-(4-iodophenyl)ethanol (ee >98%) III. The remaining (S)-isomer of the ester is separated from the (R)-alcohol

Conditions: temp:0.00; pressure:0.00; stir:; See reaction.notes.procedure_details.
