Ms. Decastro et al., INFLUENCE OF THE N-MOM GROUP IN THE ENANTIOSELECTIVE LIPASE-CATALYZEDMETHANOLYSIS OF RACEMIC 1,4-DIHYDROPYRIDINE DICARBOXYLATES, Tetrahedron : asymmetry, 8(6), 1997, pp. 857-858
The hydrolysis of l-4-phenyl-1,4-dihydropyridine-3,5-dicarboxylates, N
-methoxymethylated and N-unsubstituted has been. carried out using lip
ases AK and PS from Pseudomonas. The presence of N-MOM changed the ena
ntiopreference of lipase AK but not of lipase PS. The observed enantio
preference of the lipases is not changed by the nature of the organic
solvent or the temperature. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science Ltd.
