A highly stereoselective enzymatic kinetic resolution of novel various substituted racemic furylbenzthiazole-2-yl-ethanols and their acetates has been developed. Both processes, the enzymatic acylation of the racemic alcohols and the enzymatic methanolysis of racemic acetates yielded highly enantiomerically enriched (ee >98%) resolution product, when CaL-B was used as a biocatalyst in acetonitrile. The absolute configuration of the obtained (R)-(+)-1-(5-(4- chlorobenzo[d]thiazol-2-yl)furan-2-yl)ethanol was determined by a detailed 1H NMR study of rac- and (+)-1-(5-(4-chlorobenzo[d]thiazol-2-yl) furan-2-yl)ethanol Mosher derivatives.
