The invention discloses a new chiral
separation method of a 2,3-diphenylpropionic acid single
enantiomer, i.e., a method for synthesizing the 2,3-diphenylpropionic acid single
enantiomer by performing
enzyme-catalyzed enantioselective
hydrolysis on a 2,3-diphenylpropionic acid
enantiomer. 2,3-diphenylpropionate enantiomer is hydrolyzed by utilizing
high selectivity and high
catalysis efficiency of
Candida antarctica lipase A and a solubilization effect of
cyclodextrin on a 2,3-diphenylpropionate enantiomer is utilized, so that
hydrolysis reaction of the 2,3-diphenylpropionate enantiomer in a
phosphate buffering solution is enhanced; the conversion rate of a substrate and the optical purity of a product are respectively up to 44.79 percent and 98.24 percent, and the
stereoselectivity E is greater than 276. According to the method disclosed by the invention, the problems of low optical purity, low yield, environment
pollution and the like in a general separation technique are overcome; by adopting the method, the high conversion rate and the
high selectivity required by
hydrolysis of the 2,3-diphenylpropionate enantiomer can be realized, so that the aims of no-
toxicity and no-harmlessness of a separation chiral compound, mild
reaction conditions, simpleness of equipment, convenience in operation, low cost and the like are fulfilled.
