abstract = "Efficient kinetic resolution of racemic 3-hydroxy-3-(pentafluorophenyl)- propionitrile (±)-1 by a lipase-catalyzed transesterification gave optically pure (S)-3-hydroxy-3-(pentafluorophenyl-)propionitrile (S)-1 and (R)-(+)-3-acetoxy-3-(penta-fluorophenyl)propionitrile (R)-1 [>99% ee, respectively, E = 1057], the former of which was further transformed into (S)-(-)-3-amino-1-(pentafluorophenyl)-1-propanol (S)-7 in four steps.",
