(14) Lipase from Pseudomonas cepacia (Amano PS-D I, diatomite as
support) was used for this substrate due to a substantially higher
enantioselectivity (ECALB = 1.8, EPSL = 13.1, in the acylative kinetic
resolution of alcohol 2c using vinyl acetate). However, to achieve very
high optical purity for 6c, an in-depth enzyme screening would be
necessary.
