Here, we report a flow chemistry approach for kinetic resolution of (±)-1,2-propanediol protected by trityl group using the packed-bed reactor filled with different immobilized enzymes. It was investigated the performance of 16 immobilized lipases, includ

(R)-Propylene carbonate is an important intermediate in the synthesis of tenofovir pro-drugs such as tenofovir alafenamide fumarate (TAF) and tenofovir diisoproyl fumarate (TDF). Independent of the pro-drug type, tenofovir presents a chiral secondary hydroxy derivative, which can be obtained directly from (R)-propylene carbonate. Herein, we report our chemo-enzymatic continuous-flow strategy towards (R)-propylene carbonate starting from a very cheap and renewable raw material, glycerol. We were able to synthesize (R)-propylene carbonate in seven continuous-flow steps, starting from glycerol, in good-to-excellent yields (66–93 %) and excellent selectivity (E > 200).
