Development of an Efficient and Scalable Biocatalytic Route to (1S,4R)-8-Hydroxy-1,2,3,4- tetrahydro-1,4-methanonaphthalen-5-yl Propionate via Enantioselective Enzymatic Desymmetrization of a Prochiral Diester

Abstract

An efficient procedure for enzymatic desymmetrization of the prochiral diphenol compound 2 was successfully developed to prepare the pharmaceutical intermediate (1S,4R)-8-hydroxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro...
