(S)-(+)-O-methylmandelate esters of trans- and cis-1,3, 3-trimethyl-2-oxabicyclo[2.2.2]octan-5- and 6-ols (2- and 3-hydroxy-1,8-cineoles) were prepared, and eight diastereomers were separated. The absolute configuration of the asymmetric carbons of the cineole moiety of each diastereomer was determined by (1)H NMR data according to the Mosher theory. Each mandelate was reduced with LiAlH(4) to obtain optically pure hydroxy-1,8-cineoles, this being followed by acetylation to afford optically pure acetoxy-1, 8-cineoles. These acetates were subjected to chiral GC, using a cyclodextrin column, and the enantiomeric purity of trans- and cis-1, 3,3-trimethyl-2-oxabicyclo[2.2.2]octan-5- and 6-yl acetates in the aroma concentrate from the rhizomes of Alpinia galanga was determined as 93.9 (5S), 19.4 (5R), 63.5 (6R), and 100 (6R) % ee, respectively. The aroma character of each enantiomer was also evaluated by GC-sniffing.
