title: Resolution and synthesis of (S)-1-(2-naphthyl)ethanol with immobilized pea protein: as a new biocatalyst.
abstract: (S)-1-(2-Naphthyl)ethanol was yielded by immobilized pea (Pisum sativum L.) protein (IPP) from (R, S) 2-naphthyl ethanol (> 99% ee, yield; about 50%), in which the (R)-enantiomer was selectively oxidized to 2-acetonaphthone. IPP could be reused consecutively at least three times without any decrease of yield and optical purity.
