Procedure: The same procedure of Example 5 is repeated with the only differences that 1.95 g of ethyl 3-oxo-butyrate were weighed and dissolved in MeOH/H2O 19/1 (v/v) and the cataIyst of Example I5 was utilized. At the end of the reaction, the ethyl 3-hydroxybutyrate resulted to be equal to 91%, while the ethyl 3-dimetoxybutyrate resulted equal to 9%. The stereoinduction was >99% in favour of the antipode (S). At the end of the reaction

Procedure: The same procedure of Example 5 is repeated with the only differences that 1.95 g of ethyl 3-oxo-butyrate were weighed and dissolved in MeOH/H2O 19/1 (v/v) and the catalyst of Example 15 was utilized. At the end of the reaction, the ethyl 3-hydroxybutyrate resulted to be equal to 91%, while the ethyl 3-dimetoxybutyrate resulted equal to 9%. The stereoinduction was >99% in favour of the antipode (S). At the end of the reaction

Procedure: Under a nitrogen gas atmosphere, 0.0096 g (7.3×10-6 mol) of [RuI(p-Cymene)((+)-SO3Na-BINAP)]I, 0.1164 g (7.8×10-4 mol) of NaI, 1 ml (7.5×10-3 mol) of ethyl acetoacetate, and 1.5 ml of water were charged in a 100 milli-liter autoclave. After displacing the inside atmosphere of the autoclave with a hydrogen gas, the autoclave was pressed at a hydrogen pressure of 50 kg/cm2 and the mixture was stirred for 40 hours at 65° C. After the reaction was over, the hydrogen gas was removed, and after added thereto 100 ml of water and 100 ml of ether, the ether extraction was carried out. The ether extract was recovered, dried with anhydrous sodium sulfate, and further ether was distilled off to provide 0.62 g (percent yield 63%) of ethyl 3-hydroxybutyrate. By the analysis of gas chromatography (PEG-HT), the conversion ratio was determined to be 99%. was removed after added 100 ml of water and 100 ml of ether, the ether extraction The ether extract was recovered dried with anhydrous sodium sulfate, and further ether was distilled off
