Asymmetric reduction of p-alkylacetophenones Ia-VIIa with lithium aluminium hydride in the presence of (-)-quinine affords optically active alcohols Ib-VIIb of the (R)-(+) configuration in optical yields of about 50%.

Partially resolved enantiomers of optically active alcohols I-V, obtained by enantioselective reduction of the corresponding ketones with lithium aluminium hydride in the presence of (-)-quinine, were converted into crystalline 3,5-dinitrobenzoates or phenylcarbamates. The esters of the nearly optically pure enantiomers were separated by crystallization from the generally more soluble esters of the racemates. Optical purity of the hydrolytically liberated alcohols was determined by 1H NMR spectroscopy in the presence of chiral shifting agents.

The structure IIIa previously proposed for the β-diketone with an unsaturated side chain, obtained by the action of alkali on the optically active compound of Tigaso oil, is confirmed by the formation of methyl stearyl ketone and resorcinol monomethyl ether in the pyrolysis of the methyl ether (IV). An anomalous lithium aluminium hydride reduction of the methyl ether (IV) and other reactions are discussed. Unsuccessful attempts have been made to synthesize the tribasic acid resulting from sodium hypobromite oxidation of the β-diketone (IIIb).
