Starting from 1-acetyl-1-cyclohexene, three enantiomeric pairs (ee ≥99%) of bicyclic δ-halo-γ-lactones with cyclohexane ring were obtained in five-step synthesis. The key stereochemical steps were lipase-catalyzed kinetic resolution of racemic 1-(cyclohex-1-en-1-yl) ethanol followed by transfer of chirality to ethyl 2-(2-ethylidenecyclohexyl) acetate in the Johnson-Claisen rearrangement. Synthesized halolactones exhibited antiproliferative activity towards canine B-cell leukemia cells (GL-1) and canine B-cell chronic leukemia cells (CLB70) and the most potent (IC 50 18.43 ± 1.46 μg/mL against GL-1, IC 50 11.40 ± 0.40 μg/mL against CLB70) comparable with the control etoposide, was (1 R ,6 R ,1' S )-1-(1'-chloroethyl)-9- oxabicyclo[4.3.0]nonan-8-one ( 8b ). All halolactones did not have a toxic effect on erythrocytes and did not change the fluidity of membranes in the hydrophobic region of the lipid bilayer. Only weak changes in the hydrophilic area were observed, like the degree of lipid packing and associated hydration. The racemic halolactones were also tested for their antimicrobial properties and found to exhibit selectivity towards bacteria, in particular, towards Proteus mirabilis ATCC 35659.
