Abstract
A two consecutive step procedure for the resolution-separation of secondary alcohols employing ethyl tetradecanoate in the presence of lipase allowed the enzymatic kinetic resolution of two target molecules, 1-phenylethanol and 6-methylhept-5-en-2-ol. ( S)-1-Phenylethanol was isolated in a yield of 47% with an ee of 94% and ( R)-1-phenylethanol in a yield of 51% with an ee of 95%. ( S)-6-Methylhept-5-en-2-ol was isolated in a yield 47% and an ee of 87% and ( R)-6-methylhept-5-en-2-ol in a yield 49% and an ee of 90%.
