Design of α-Alkyl β-Hydroxy Esters Suitable for Providing Optical Resolution by Lipase Hydrolysis
A study of the lipase-catalyzed hydrolyses of various α-substituted β-acetoxy esters revealed that a sulfur functional group in the ester, which could play an important role in the stereorecognition by lipase A6 (Aspergillus sp.) and an anti conformation
