B. Danieli et al., STEREOSELECTIVE ENZYMATIC-HYDROLYSIS OF DIMETHYL MESO-PIPERIDINE-3,5-DICARBOXYLATES, Tetrahedron : asymmetry, 7(2), 1996, pp. 345-348
Desymmetrization of dimethyl meso-piperidine-3,5-dicarboxylates 3a-c w
ith pig liver esterase (PLE), lipase from Candida cylindracea (CCL) an
d porcine pancreatic lipase (PPL) is described. The enantioselectiviti
es of the enzymatic transformations and the absolute configurations of
the resulting half-esters 2a-c were determined.
