Microwave Assisted Enzymatic Kinetic Resolution of (±)-1-Phenyl-2-propyn-1-ol in Nonaqueous Media

Kinetic resolution of 1-phenyl-2-propyn-1-ol, an important chiral synthon, was studied through trans-esterification with acyl acetate to investigate synergism between microwave irradiation and enzyme catalysis. Lipases from different microbial origins were employed for the kinetic resolution of (R/S...
