β¦ Synopsis
An enzymatic method for the direct resolution of propranolol is described.
Candida cylindracea lipase enantioselectively catalyzed N-acetylation of S-propranolol with isopropenyl acetate in isopropyl ether. The ee values of the two enantiomers of N-acetylpropranolol were determined by an HPLC equipped with a chiral column. The effects of organic solvent nature and substrate concentration on enantioselectivity were also studied.

The lipase-catalyzed acetylation of a broad spectrum of configurations of the 2-hydroxy acids 1 were assigned by comparison of the gas-chromatographic data with that of racemic 2-hydroxy acids 1 to their 2-acetoxy acids 2 was shown to proceed with high enantioselectivity. Thus, the literature-known
