| 摘要 |
The present invention relates to a method for production of a diol form represented by the formula (2), which includes filtering a culture fluid obtained by microbial conversion using a compound represented by the following formula (1a) and/or formula (1b) as a substrate, using a filter having an aperture size of 10 to 100 µm; washing the residue on the filter with water or a solvent having an SP value outside the range of 8.3 to 20 (cal/cm 3 ) 1/2 ; subsequently dissolving the obtained cake in a solvent having an SP value of 8.3 to 20 (cal/cm 3 ) 1/2 ; and then filtering or centrifuging the solution. According to the present invention, 1-(2-hydroxyethyl)-2,5,5,8a-tetramethyldecahydronaphthalen-2-ol, which is useful as an intermediate for the production of 3a,6,6,9a-tetramethyldodecahydronaphtho[2,1-b]furan, can be efficiently produced at high purity.
