Procedure: Into a reaction flask equipped with a magnetic stirrer and thermometer was charged 257.2 grams (2.0 moles) of p-chlorophenol, 245 grams (2.4 moles) of acetic anhydride and 200 milliliters of pyridine and the resulting reaction mixture was then heated to a temperature of 23° C.-47° C. After completion of the reaction, work-up and distillation at reduced pressure, p-chlorophenyl acetate was obtained (93 percent of theoretical). The nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectrum was consistent with the chemical structure. Into a reaction flask equipped with a magnetic stirrer the resulting reaction mixture was then heated to a temperature of 23° C.-47° C After completion of the reaction distillation at reduced pressure

Procedure: Acetic anhydride (80.1 g, 0.78 mol) and one drop of concentrated sulfuric acid were added to 4-chlorophenol [compound (6-1)] (100 g, 0.78 mol) at room temperature, and the mixture was stirred for 17 hours. The resultant mixture was added to ice-water, and converted to alkaline by the addition of sodium hydroxide (20% aqueous solution), followed by extraction with diethyl ether. The organic layer was washed with water, dried over magnesium sulfate. Subsequently, the solvent was removed under reduced pressure, and then the residue was subjected to distillation under reduced pressure (81° C./1.5 mmHg), to thereby yield 4-chlorophenyl acetate as a colorless oily product (130 g, yield: 98.0%). followed by extraction with diethyl ether The organic layer was washed with water dried over magnesium sulfate Subsequently, the solvent was removed under reduced pressure the residue was subjected to distillation under reduced pressure (81° C./1.5 mmHg)

Procedure: The procedure of Example 1 was repeated except that 3 molar equivalents of p-chlorophenyl acetate (a conventional acylating agent) was used in place of isopropenyl acetate in the presence of three times the amount of the enzyme catalyst used in Example 1 over a reaction period of 42 hours, to obtain (R)-1-phenylethyl acetate having an optical purity of higher than 99%, at a yield of 95%. used in Example 1 over a reaction period of 42 hours

Procedure: A 10 ml Schlenk tube equipped with magnetic stirrer was charged with 59 mg (0.7 mmol) of 4-acetoxychlorobenzene, 100 mg (0.84 mmol, 1.2 eq) of 3,5-diacetoxystyrene, 125 mg of cesium carbonate (0.38 mmol, 1.1 eq), 5 μl of P(t-Bu)3 (0.02 mmol, 6 mol %) and 5.57 mg (0.01 mmol, 1.5 mol %) of tris(dibenzylideneacetone)-dipalladium chloroform complex. The tube was evacuated and flushed with argon three times and 1 ml de-aerated dioxane was added under inert conditions. The reaction was carried out under stirring for 19 hours at 120° C. Work-up was conducted following the procedure of Example 5 and gave (E)-3,4′,5-triacetoxystilbene. A 10 ml Schlenk tube equipped with magnetic stirrer The tube was evacuated flushed with argon three times and 1 ml de-aerated dioxane was added under inert conditions
