Enantiomerically enriched glycidol derivatives with contiguous stereogenic centers were obtained in a highly diastereo- and enantio-selective epoxidation catalyzed with the styrene monooxygenase StyAB2.
epoxidation could also achieve the kinetic resolution of racemic secondary allylicalcohols, yielding the corresponding epoxides with up to 50% yields, as well as excellent enantio- and diastereoselectivity (up to >99% ee and >99% de) within 20–60 min, making a greener strategy for the production of valuable enantiopure glycidol derivatives in the fine chemical and pharmaceutical industries.
