STEREOSELECTIVE CHEMOENZYMATIC PROCESS FOR PREPARING OPTICALLY ENRICHED PHENYLGLYCIDATES

摘要

The present invention relates to a novel and efficient chemoenzymatic process of preparation of optically active trans alkyl phenylglycidates. The invention particularly discloses a novel process for the chemoenzymatic synthesis of two enantiomers of trans alkyl phenylglycidate i.e. alkyl(2S,3R)-phenylglycidate and alkyl(2R,3S)-phenylglycidate of formulae 7 and 8 respectively
