Abstract
(R)-and (S)-2-bromo-1-(4-nitrophenyl) ethanol are precursors of important β-adrenergic receptor blocking drugs (R)-nifenalol and (S)-sotalol, respectively. Both were obtained in enantiomeric pure forms via a single highly efficient enzymatic transesterification reaction of (±)-2-bromo-1-(4-nitrophenyl) ethanol using immobilized lipase PS-C-II (E> 1000; concn 200g/L), while PS lipase completely failed to react. On the other hand, the hydrolytic ...
