Abstract

Dynamic kinetic resolutions have proven to be a useful method for the preparation of enantiopure compounds from racemates, leading to the formation of a single enantiomer in theoretically 100% yield. Because lipases are ubiquitous, versatile, stereoselective and robust biocatalysts, they have been successfully applied as co-catalysts in these reactions, being mostly combined with metals in the chemoenzymatic dynamic kinetic resolutions of alcohols and amines.
