Abstract
Abstract Lipase B from Candida antarctica (CAL-B) catalyzes the slow, but highly enantioselective (E> 200), ring-opening alcoholysis of two bicyclic and two 4-aryl-substituted β-lactams. Surprisingly, the rate of the reaction varies with the nature of the alcohols and was fastest with either enantiomer of 2-octanol. A 0.5-g scale reaction with 2-octanol as the nucleophile in diisopropyl ether at 60 C yielded the unreacted β-lactam in 39–46% yield ( ...
