An efficient lipase-catalyzed desymmetrization of prochiral 2,2-disubstituted 1,3-propanediols was developed using 1-ethoxyvinyl 2-furoate 1b, for which the well-known method using vinyl or isopropenyl acetate has had limited success due to low reactivity and easy racemization of the products through acyl group migration. The reagent 1b is highly reactive and converts various prochiral 1,3-diols to the monoesters having a chiral quaternary carbon center with 82-99% ee. These products were stable against racemization under acidic conditions, and their furoyl groups were compatible with oxidative conditions. Prolonging the reaction time led to the kinetic resolution of the monoesters resulting in an increase of their optical purity. The similar desymmetrization of meso cis-1,2-cycloalkanediols gave the monoesters with 82-97% ee without racemization.
