Abstract

A series of novel (R)-5-phenylfuran-2-yl cyanomethyl butanoates were prepared by Pseudomonas cepacia lipase-catalysed dynamic kinetic resolution in toluene. The method exploits a basic resin both for the racemization and formation of phenylfuran-based cyanohydrins and for the decomposition of acetone cyanohydrin in one-pot with enzymatic enantioselective acylation using vinyl butanoate. The lipase-catalysed methanolysis of ...
