Thus, treatment of cineole 1 with chromyl acetate gave rac-2 which after sodium borohydride reduction and acetylation provided racemic 3-endo-acetyloxy-1,8-cineole, rac-4. Enantioselective hydrolysis using porcine liver esterase (PLE) gave a mixture of 3-endo-hydroxy-1,8-cineole (-)-3 and 3-endo-acetyloxy-1,8-cineole (+)-4.
