Lipase-catalysed resolution of cyclic cis- and trans-β-hydroxy esters
摘要:
Lipases A and B from Candida antarctica are shown to be highly efficient and complementary biocatalysts for the resolution of five- to seven-membered cyclic beta-hydroxy esters by O-acylation. Using this procedure, all four stereoisomers of each one are obtained in enantiopure form and very high yields. (C) 2003 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
