A set of 28 enantiomers comprising rigid and flexible secondary alcohols was synthesized by the asymmetric Corey-Bakshi-Shibata reduction. The enantiomerically pure alcohols were subjected to enzymatic glucuronidation assays employing the human UDP-glucuronosyltransferases (UGTs) 2B7 and 2B17. Both UGTs displayed high
