Optically active methacrylate monomers of secondary alcohols have been synthesised using oxime methacrylate as an acylating agent. The type of solvent used for the reaction had a profound effect on the reaction time and enantioselectivity. Various aryl, cyclic and linear secondary alcohols were screened for their structural effect on enantioselectivity. The nature and position of the substituents in the case of aryl carbinols, had a remarkable effect on the conversion and enantioselectivity, whereas, in the case of linear alcohols, the enantioselectivity was influenced by the increase in the chain length.

Enzymatic acylation is commonly used for the kinetic resolution of alcohols and amines. The simple acyl group introduced during the enzymatic reaction is Usually removed or replaced by another group. Retention of more complex acyl moieties as part of the target structures would be a more efficient strategy. We have studied the enantioselective acylation of a model alcohol substrate, 1-phenylethanol, with vinyl esters bearing various functionality on the acyl moieties in the presence of three lipases (Candida antarctica, Candida rugosa and Burkholderia cepacia) frequently used in organic synthesis. C. antarctica lipase is the most versatile lipase for this type of biotransformations. We applied this strategy to the synthesis of a protein kinase C ligand and a natural product, phoracantholide.

Kinetic resolution of racemic .alpha.-methylbenzyl methacrylate: asymmetric selective polymerization catalyzed by Grignard reagent-(-)-sparteine derivative complexes
Coassemblies of chiral cationic block polymers and achiral anionic Eu-POMs through electrostatic interactions display salt-responsive induced circularly polarized luminescence, which arises from the static coupling and dynamic coupling.
