摘要:
                                The lipase catalyzed resolution of trans-3,4-tetrahydrofuran and pyrrolidine bromohydrins by acylation or hydrolysis of their acylated derivatives has been studied. For both heterocycles, the best enantioselectivity was obtained using Candida antarctica lipase B as the catalyst in the hydrolytic processes. The enantiomerically pure bromohydrins are useful intermediates for the preparation of 3,4-fuctionalized cis-heterocycles. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
