Kinetic resolution of (±)-trans- and (±)-cis-2-phenylcyclopentanamine by CALB-catalyzed aminolysis of esters: the key role of the leaving group
摘要:
Kinetic resolution of (+/-)-trans- and (+/-)-cis-2-phenylcyclopentanamine is effectively performed by lipase B from Candida antarctica, (CALB)-catalyzed aminolysis reaction. Whereas reaction between (+/-)-trans-2-phenylcyclopentanamine and ethyl acetate proceeds with a very high E value (>200) and conversion (50%), the corresponding acetylation of ()-cis-2-phenylcyclopentanamine happens with low E value (16) and conversion (28%). Nevertheless, this problem is overcome using other acyl donors such as (+/-)-1-phenylethyl and (+/-)-cis-2-phenylcyclopentyl methoxyacetates. The influence of the acyl donor on the CALB-catalyzed aminolysis of (+/-)-cis-2-phenylcyclopentanamine is also studied. (C) 2003 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
