A new and efficient dynamic kineticresolution (DKR) process of secondary aromatic alcohols was developed with acid resins as racemization catalysts. Acid resin CD8604 was shown to have excellent racemization activity and good biocompatibility. When employing CD8604 and complex acyl donors as racemization catalyst and acyl donor, respectively, enantiomerically pure aromatic acetate was obtained with
immobilization of lipase and resolution of racemic 1-phenylethanol were investigated. Under optimal conditions, esters could be obtained with conversion of 50%, enantiomeric excess of product (eep) > 99%, enantiomeric excess of substrate (ees) > 99%, and enantiomeric ratio (E) > 1000. The magnetic CALB CLEAs were successfully used for enzymatic kineticresolution of fifteen secondaryalcohols. Compared with Novozym

Stereochemistry and Mechanism of Enzymatic and Non-Enzymatic Hydrolysis of Benzylic<i>sec</i>-Sulfate Esters
The substrate scope of inverting alkylsulfatase Pisa1 was extended towards benzylic sec-sulfate esters by suppression of competing non-enzymatic autohydrolysis by addition of dimethyl sulfoxide as co-solvent. Detailed investigation of the mechanism of autohydrolysis in 18O-labeled buffer by using an enantiopure sec-benzylic sulfate ester as substrate revealed that from the three possible pathways (i)
A recombinant Bacillus subtilis esterase (BsE) expressed in E. coli was found to exhibit excellent enantioselectivity (E was always greater than 100) towards m-substituted 1-phenylethanol acetates in the enantioselective hydrolysis reaction. An explanation for the high enantioselectivity observed towards these substrates was provided by molecular modeling. Moreover, the BsE also showed strong tolerance towards a high concentration of m-substituted 1-phenylethanol acetates (up to 1 M). Based on these excellent catalytic properties of BsE, a kind of m-substituted 1-phenylethanols, (R)-1-(3-chlorophenyl)ethanol, was efficiently synthesized in space-time yield of 920 g per L per day and 97% ee, indicating that the BsE was considered as a potentially ideal and promising biocatalyst for large-scale production of optically active m-substituted 1-phenylethanols.

The application of three BVMOs for the enantioselective oxidation of 3-phenylbutan-2-ones with different substituents in the aromatic moiety is described. By choosing the appropriate biocatalyst and substrate combination, chiral ketones and esters can be obtained with excellent enantiopurities. This methodology could also be applied to the resolution of racemic alpha-alkyl benzylketones with longer alkyl chains as well as with two substituted alpha-substituted benzylacetones. A kinetic analysis revealed that the BVMOs studied effectively convert all tested compounds showing that the enzymes are tolerant towards the substrate structure while being highly enantioselective. These properties render BVMOs as valuable biocatalysts for the preparation of compounds with high interest in organic synthesis. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
