description

Abstract Porcine pancreatic lipase (PPL) and lipase Amano P catalyze the enantioselective acylation of cyclic 1,2- and 1,3-amino alcohol derivatives in organic solvents. The enatiomeric excesses (ee′s) were shown to depend on the enzyme, reaction time, temperature and type of substrate.
