Optimization of the asymmetric synthesis of (S)-1-phenylethanol using Ispir bean as whole-cell biocatalyst

open access: yesGreen Processing and Synthesis, 2019
In this study, enantiomerically pure (S)-1-phenylethanol was produced via asymmetric bioreduction of acetophenone. Ispir bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) was used as an alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) source since whole cells are cheaper than isolated enzymes ...

Controlling lipase enantioselectivity for organic synthesis

open access: yes, 2001
Lipases are used frequently as chiral catalysts in the synthesis of various fine chemicals and intermediates. The increasing need of compounds with high stereochemical purity requires catalysts with an improved and controlled performance.

Stereoselective Phosphorylation of d-Ribose as a Driver of Life’s Homochirality

open access: yesLife
Life demonstrates remarkable homochirality of its major building blocks: nucleic acids, amino acids, sugars, and phospholipids. Phospholipid bilayer vesicles (liposomes) are formed at the water/air interface from Langmuir layers and contain ribose, a ...

Structural Basis for the Enantioselectivity of Esterase Est-Y29 toward (S)‑Ketoprofen

open access: yes, 2018
The thermostable esterase Est-Y29, belonging to the family VIII lipolytic esterases isolated from metagenomes extracted from the topsoil in Republic of Korea, was identified as a promising catalyst for the production of (S)-ketoprofen, an important ...

Inversion of enantioselectivity of serine proteases

open access: yes, 1995
The enantioselectivity of serine proteases in the transesterification of N‐acetyl‐(D,L)‐ phenylalanine esters with propan‐1‐ol in cyclohexane is strongly influenced by the leaving ability of the alcoholate group.

Biocatalysis in ionic liquids: Markedly enhanced enantioselectivity of lipase

open access: yes, 2001
Lipase-catalyzed transesterifications in ionic liquids proceeded with markedly enhanced enantioselectivity. It was observed that lipases were up to 25 times more enantioselective in ionic liquids than in conventional organic solvents ...
