Abstract
A process for production of an optically active isomer of 2-(tetrahydropyran-2-yloxy)-1-propanol represented by formula (I): ##STR1## is disclosed, which comprises reacting an optically active isomer of a 1-acyloxy-2-propanol represented by formula (II): ##STR2## wherein R is a substituted or unsubstituted aryl group, with 3,4-dihydro-2H-pyran to obtain an optically active isomer of a 1-acyloxy-2-(tetrahydropyran-2-yloxy)propane represented by formula (III): ##STR3## wherein R is as defined above, and hydrolyzing the compound (III) to eliminate the acyl group. The optically active isomer of 2-(tetrahydropyran-2-yloxy)-1-propanol represented by formula (I) is an intermediate for synthesis of pyridobenzoxazine derivatives useful as a synthetic antibacterial agent, particularly an optically active isomer of ofloxacin.
