Abstract
Abstract Synthesis of both enantiomers of 2-bromohexadecanoic acid is described by diastereoselective bromination of esters (+)- and (−)-3 followed by removal of the chiral auxiliary. The absolute configuration of the acids is confirmed by an independent chemical synthesis from chiral pool precursors.
