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
Many bacteria, including Vibrio spp., regulate virulence gene expression in a cell-density dependent way through a communication process termed quorum sensing (QS). Hence, interfering with QS could be a valuable novel antipathogenic strategy. Cinnamaldehyde has previously been shown to inhibit
