Regioselective esterification of diols and triols with lipases in organic solvents

Lipases from porcine pancreas (PPL) and Candida cylindracea (CCL) in different organic solvents allow discrimination of the primary and secondary hydroxyl groups, and also between two primary hydroxyl groups towards acylation with 2,2,2-trifluoroethyl butyrate in diols and triols with high regioselectivity.

Efficient and regioselective ring-opening of epoxides with carboxylic acid catalyzed by graphite oxide

An efficient, simple and regioselective ring-opening reaction of epoxides with various carboxylic acids under metal-free conditions is reported. The ring-opening of epoxides takes place in the presence of graphite oxide as an efficient and available catalyst to produce the corresponding 2-hydroxy monoester and 1,2-diester derivatives in good yields. Regioselective attack of the nucleo-phile, short reaction times, metal-free conditions and reusability of catalyst are among the advantages of the present protocol.
