Enzymatic enantioselective acylation of sterically aromatic secondary alcohol

This study focused on the kinetic resolution of (R,S)-I-phenylethanol using lauric acid as acyl donor. The enantioselective esterification was catalysed by immobilised lipases in organic media. From exploratory experiments, several commercial immobilised lipases were screened for their efficiency in...
