Lipase-mediated stereoselective transformations of chiral organophosphorus P-boranes revisited: Revision of the absolute configuration of alkoxy(hydroxymethyl)phenylphosphine P-boranes

Article abstract of DOI:10.1016/j.tetasy.2011.08.024

The lipase-promoted kinetic resolution of a series of alkoxy(hydroxymethyl) phenylphosphine P-boranes proceeded with moderate stereoselectivity to give both the unreacted substrates and their O-acetyl derivatives. The absolute configurations of the produc
