Enantioseparation of (RS)-atenolol with the use of lipases immobilized onto new-synthesized magnetic nanoparticles
摘要:
The enzymatic method was used for the direct resolution of racemic atenolol. The catalytic activities of commercially available lipases from Candida rugosa (MY and OF) immobilized onto new-synthesized chitosan magnetic nanoparticles [Fe3O4-CS-Et(NH2)(2), Fe3O4-CS-Et(NH2)(3)]in the kinetic resolution of racemic atenolol were compared. The best results were obtained by using Candida rugosa lipase OF immobilized onto Fe3O4-CS-Et(NH2)(3). Additionally, the enzyme reusability was investigated. It was established that even after 5 reaction cycles, both lipases from Candida rugosa maintained their high catalytic activities and operational stabilities. This approach is extremely important from an economical point of view, because it allows for a direct cost reduction of the biotransformation. (C) 2017 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
