Stereoselective hydrogenation of (2S,5R)-(-)-menthone in presence of beta-cyclodextrin
In the presence of P-cyclodextrin and its derivatives, the hydrogenation reaction of (2S,5R)-(-)-menthone proceeded smoothly with high stereoselectivity for the formation of (1R,2S,5R)-menthol. (c) 2006 Elsevier B.V All rights reserved.
