Dynamic kinetic asymmetric transformation (DYKAT) of 1,5-diols via combined lipase and ruthenium catalysis provides enantiomerically pure diacetates in high diastereoselectivity, which can serve as intermediates in natural product synthesis. This is demonstrated by the synthesis of (+)-Solenopsin A.
