摘要
The kinetic resolution of (+/-)-2-methylglycidyl benzyl ether was achieved via enantioselectivc biohydrolysis using microbial and plant epoxide hydrolases. Depending on the type of enzyme, opposite enantiopreference and stereo-complementary mode of action (i.e., retention vs inversion of configuration) led to hetero- and homochiral product mixtures. optimization of the reaction conditions for Rhodococcus sp. R312 led to significantly enhanced enantioselectivity (E > 200), which enabled the deracemization of (+/-)-2-methylglycidyl benzyl ether via biohydrolysis (proceeding with retention of configuration) followed by inverting acid-catalyzed hydrolysis to furnish (R)-1-benzyloxy-2-methylpropane-2,3-diol in > 97% ee and 78% yield from the racemate.
