Obtainment and testing of pure enantiomers are of great importance for bioactive compounds, because of the assessed implications of enantioselectivity in receptor-mediated responses. Herein we evaluated the use of biocatalysis to obtain enantiomerically pure β-lactam intermediates further exploited in the

Enzymes are attractive catalysts for the production of optically active compounds in organic solvents. However, their often low catalytic activity in such applications hampers their practical use. To overcome this, we investigated the effectiveness of the covalent modification of alpha-chymotrypsin

Enzymes have been extensively used in organic solvents to catalyze a variety of transformations of biological and industrial significance. It has been generally accepted that in dry aprotic organic solvents, enzymes are kinetically trapped in their conformation due to the

We examined the activity of free Rhizopus oryzae lipase (ROL) and ROL immobilized on mesoporous materials in transesterification reactions in various dialkylimidazolium-cation based ionic liquids. For free ROL, the highest activity (0.39 U/mg protein) was obtained in [OMIm][PF(6)] followed by
