Regio-and enantioselective properties of the lipase-catalyzed irreversible transesterification of some 2-substituted-1, 4-butanediols in organic solvents
The regioselectivity of the Pseudomonas fluorescens (P. cepacia) lipase (PFL)-catalyzed irreversible transesterification of 2-substituted-1, 4-butanediols 1a–3a has been studied and, in the case of 3a, it has been shown that (R)-and (S)-diols are acylated with opposite regioselectivity.
