Diastereoselective reduction of diketones with Lactobacillus kefir DSM 20587 was examined. The reduction of both oxo-functions proceeded highly diastereoselectively. (2 R,5 R)-Hexanediol 3 was produced starting from (2,5)-hexanedione 1 in quantitative yields with enantiomeric excess >99% and diastereomeric excess >99%.
