We developed to produce optically pure glycerol derivatives, such as (R) and (S)-2, 3- dichloro-1-prop-anols, and (R) and (S)-3-chloro-1, 2-propanediols, based on microbial resolution. These compounds are precursors of optically active epichlorohydrins and glycidols which are used for wide variety of organic syntheses. We describe here the new methods to obtain these chiral C3 units and their several synthetic applications.
