38. We employed thiacrown 23 as an additive in hydrolysis of 2-substituted-2-propenyl acetates or 1-alkyl-3-cyanopropyl acetates. Hydrolysis rate of all substrates was accelerated by addition of 5 mol % of thiacrown 23, but enantioselectivity strongly depended on the nature of the substrate. Significant enhancement of enantioselectivity was observed when the original E values were from 7 to 15.
