activities and stereoselectivities and lactone products were obtained in moderate to excellent yields; importantly, enzyme‐based stereocontrol allowed access to both enantiomers in up to >99% ee. Chiral recognition of a distant γ‐center led to kinetic resolution with remarkable enantioselectivities (E values up to 49). An unprecedented case of dynamic kinetic resolution was observed with 3‐methyl‐5‐phenylfuran‐2(5H)‐one
