摘要
Candida antarctica lipase B (Novozyme 435) catalysed the enantioselective acylation of 2-amino-2-phenylacetonitrile 1 with ethyl phenylacetate affording a near enantiopure product in 47% yield. Acylation of 1 and 2-amino-4-phenylbutyronitrile with ethyl acetate yielded an unexpected partially racemised final product. The racemisation was shown to be turnover related and is ascribed to the increased acidity of the alpha -proton in the formation of the tetrahedral intermediate in the active site of the enzyme.
