Abstract

The description of the kinetics of the enantiomeric resolution with lipases has been subject to study. The transesterification of (R,S)-1-phenyl ethanol using vinyl acetate in excess can be described as a pseudo-1-substrate reaction. The enantiomeric resolution with lipase from Penicillium cyclopium is based on a difference in conversion rate for the enantiomers. The binding rate on the enzymes is equal. Using lipase from Chromobacterium viscosum, kinetic resolution is obtained by a difference in binding rate, whilst the conversion rate for both enantiomers is equal. Uncompetitive inhibition is detected and validated in an enzymatic reaction model using reaction constants.
