A specifically designed acyl donor, an efficient enzyme, and a stable and reliable ruthenium catalyst are fundamental for the resolution of the racemic alcohols described here (see scheme on the right). For R 1 Ph and R 2 Me, 100% conversion into the corresponding acetate was achieved with greater than 99.5% ee .
