A novel immobilization of an enzyme with a hydrophilic polymer support in organic solvents has been developed utilizing the "polymer-incarcerated (PI) method", which has been used to immobilize metal catalysts; the kinetic resolution of secondary alcohols
Asymmetric Chemoenzymatic Reductive Acylation of Ketones by a Combined Iron-Catalyzed Hydrogenation–Racemization and Enzymatic Resolution Cascade

A general and practical process for the conversion of prochiral ketones into the corresponding chiral acetates has been realized. An iron carbonyl complex is reported to catalyze the hydrogenation–dehydrogenation–hydrogenation of prochiral ketones. By merging the iron-catalyzed redox reactions with enantioselective enzymatic acylations a wide range of benzylic, aliphatic and (hetero)aromatic ketones, as well as diketones, were reductively acylated. The corresponding products were isolated with high yields and enantioselectivities. The use of an iron catalyst together with molecular hydrogen as the hydrogen donor and readily available ethyl acetate as acyl donor make this cascade process highly interesting in terms of both economic value and environmental credentials.

Pseudozyma (Candida) antarctica lipase B (CAL-B, Novozym 435) is one of the most widely used and outstanding biocatalysts. However, CAL-B-catalyzed transesterification of ortho-substituted 1-phenylethanol analogs suffers low conversion. In this research, the reactions were accelerated by using CO2-expanded liquids, liquids expanded by dissolving pressurized CO2, such as CO2-expanded hexane or CO2-expanded MeTHF.

A method for the selective monooxdiation of secondary benzylic C–H bonds is described using an N-oxyl catalyst and a hypervalent iodine species as a terminal oxidant. Combinations of ammonium iodate and catalytic N-hydroxyphthalimide (NHPI) were shown to be effective in the selective oxidation of n-butylbenzene directly to 1-phenylbutyl acetate in high yield (86%). This method shows moderate substrate tolerance in the oxygenation of substrates containing secondary benzylic C–H bonds, yielding the corresponding benzylic acetates in good to moderate yield. Tertiary benzylic C–H bonds were shown to be unreactive under similar conditions, despite the weaker C–H bond. A preliminary mechanistic analysis suggests that this NHPI-iodate system is functioning by a radical-based mechanism where iodine generated in situ captures formed benzylic radicals. The benzylic iodide intermediate then solvolyzes to yield the product ester.
