Abstract

PURPOSE: To obtain the compound useful as an intermediate for medicines, foods, cosmetics, etc., in high optical purity by treating a specific chromane compound with a lipase originated from a microorganism belonging to Pseudomonas fragi in the presence of an acylating agent in an inactive solvent. CONSTITUTION: The method for producing the optically active chromane compound comprises treating a chromane compound, 2-(3,4-dihydro-6-hydroxy-2,5,7,8- trimethyl-2H-benzo-1-pyran-2-yl) ethanol of formula I, with a lipase originated from a microorganism belonging to Pseudomonas fragi in the presence of an acylating agent such as vinyl acetate in an inactive solvent such as acetone at 3 deg.C for 24hr with stirring, filtering the reaction solution, concentrating the filtrate, and subsequently subjecting the concentrated solution to a separating and purifying treatment. The optically active (S)-2-(3,4-dihydro-6-hydroxy-2,5,7,8- trimethyl-2H-benzo-1-pyran-2-yl)ethanol of formula II useful as an intermediate for medicines, foods, cosmetics, etc., is thus obtained.

However, it has not been confirmed whether the above method can be applied to a chroman compound in which the hydroxyl group at the 6-position is not protected. It is also known that when a chroman derivative in which the hydroxyl group at the 6-position is not protected is subjected to an acylation reaction, the hydroxyl group at the 6-position serves as a reaction site, so that a complex product can be obtained [Bioindustry, 9 Vol. 12, No. 12 (1992)]. Therefore, in order to obtain an optically active chroman derivative having a hydroxyl group at the 6-position, it was necessary to protect the hydroxyl group at the 6-position of the raw material compound, followed by an acylation reaction, and then removing the protecting group. Therefore, the object of the present invention is to
An optically active chromane in which the hydroxyl group at the 6-position is not protected, without the need for a step for protecting the hydroxyl group at the 6-position and a step for removing the protective group from a racemic chroman compound in which the hydroxyl group at the 6-position is not protected. It is to provide a method for producing a compound with high optical purity.
