-062Synthesis of Optically Active α-Hydroxy Acids by Kinetic Resolution Through Lipase-Catalyzed Enantioselective Acetylation.-Lipases from Candida antarctica and from Burkholderia species are found to be efficient and convenient bio-catalysts for the synthesis of optically active α-hydroxy acids via enantioselective acetylation. The yields of the title compounds range from 76 to 91% based on conversio… Show more
