  • Abstract
    A Brazilian strain of the bacteria Serratia rubidaea CCT 5742 quantitatively reduced 4-tert-butylcyclohexanone and 4-methylcyclohexanone to the less thermodynamically stable diastereoisomeric alcohols cis-4-tert-butylcyclohexanol and cis-4-methylcyclohexanol with a diastereoisomeric excesses (de) of 96% and 44%, respectively. 2-Methylcyclohexanone was also totally reduced to the corresponding alcohols affording the trans-(+)-(1S, 2S)-2-methylcyclohexanol with 78% of de and an enantiomeric excess (ee) of 80%. The cis-(+)-(1S, 2R)-2-methylcyclohexanol was obtained in 98% ee.
