27. 20 Compound (7) was prepared from cis-dicyclopropane-1,2-dimethanol, vinyl butyrate and porcine pancreatic lipase (G. D. Coxon, S. Knobl, E. Roberts, M. S. Baird, J. R. Al Dulayymi, G. S. Besra, P. J. Brennan and D. E. Minnikin, Tetrahedron Lett., 1999, 6689; we regret that this was incorrectly reported in that paper. The enantiomer of (7) was in fact converted into natural lactobacillic acid, whereas (7) gave its enantiomer).
