Recent Advances in Lipase-Mediated Preparation of Pharmaceuticals and Their Intermediates

Biocatalysis offers an alternative approach to conventional chemical processes for the production of single-isomer chiral drugs. Lipases are one of the most used enzymes in the synthesis of enantiomerically pure intermediates. The use of this type of enzyme is mainly due to the characteristics of th...
