Baker's yeast-mediated synthesis of protected α-hydroxy-aldehydes

Abstract

Several 3-substituted 2-hydroxy-1,1-bis-p-tolylthiopropanes, which are precursors of protected α-hydroxy-aldehydes, have been readily prepared in high optical purity via acylation of lithium bis-p-tolylthiomethanide and subsequent baker's yeast reduction of the resulting ketones.
