A facile preparation of (±)-β-hydroxy nitriles and their enzymatic resolution with lipases

A simple and efficient method for the preparation of racemic 4-aryloxy-3-hydroxybutanenitriles is described. Lipase mediated kinetic resolution in organic media was then utilised to effect enantioseparation. Lipases from different sources were screened in the resolution reaction using a number of organic solvents. Enantiomeric excesses of up to 99% were obtained by employing lipase from Pseudomonas cepacia in di-iso-propyl ether medium.

Greener and regioselective ring opening of epoxides with TMSCN using potassium salts of magnetic carbon nitride

Abstract: Potassium salts of magnetic graphitic carbon nitride (Fe3O4?g-C3N4-K) synthesized and proved to be a green and recyclable catalyst for rapid and regioselective ring opening of epoxides with TMSCN, yiel
