Abstract
The cover image depicts a novel “acid-washable” acyl donor, namely vinyl 3-(dimethylamino)propanoate, dedicated to a chromatography-free lipase-catalyzed kinetic resolution (KR) of racemic sec-alcohols. The employed vinyl ester allows the synthesis of both enantiomers of a range of structurally diverse benzylic alcohols with high conversions and excellent enantioselectivity, and, most importantly, significantly simplifies enzymatic KR by eliminating a silica gel chromatographic separation, leading to a more sustainable and ecologically friendly bioprocess. More details can be found in article 10.1002/cbic.202400394 by Beata Zdun and Paweł Borowiecki. Cover image designed by Paweł Borowiecki and created by Paulina Marek-Urban.
