A new enzymatic strategy has been devised for the preparation of a key intermediate for the taxol side-chain from N-hydroxymethylated cis-3-acetoxy-4-phenylazetidin-2-one. Burkholderia cepacia (PS-IM)-catalyzed acylation of the primary OH group with an excess of vinyl butyrate (10equiv.) furnished the corresponding diester and unreacted monoester with excellent enantiomeric excess values (ee≥98%). Traces of undesirable enantiomeric diacetylated product and diol due to intramolecular acyl migration (∼6% mole fractions) were also detected. Finally, (2R,3S)-3-phenylisoserine hydrochloride (ee=99%), a key intermediate for the taxol side-chain, was prepared from the corresponding diester enantiomer through acidic hydrolysis.
