Abstract

Abstract A new reaction setup for kinetic enzymatic resolution was established and is demonstrated for the case of the hydrolase-catalysed conversion of methyl 2, 3-dihydro-1H- indene-1-carboxylate (1) in conjunction with a base-catalysed racemisation. The system allows controlled racemisation, resulting in efficient dynamic kinetic resolution (DKR) of the title compound. Short reaction times and high enantioselectivities were obtained with CAL ...
