The enzymatic desymmetrization of 3-(4-fluorophenyl)glutaric anhydride (3-FGA) was investigated through lipase-catalyzed enantioselective alcoholysis in organic solvents. An immobilized Lipase B from Candida Antarctica (Novozym 435) was found to be an efficient biocatalyst for the enantioselective alcoholysis of 3-FGA. Methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE) and methanol were chosen as the suitable reaction medium and acyl acceptor, respectively. The optimum reaction temperature, molar ratio of methanol to 3-FGA and 3-FGA concentration were 25°C, 2:1 and 100 mM, respectively. Under these conditions, complete conversion was achieved and methyl (S)-3-(4-fluorophenyl)glutarate ((S)-MFG) was obtained in a moderate ee value of 80%. Furthermore, the reaction was performed on a gram scale and the ee value of (S)-MFG was enriched to 96% after treatment with a toluene/hexane (2/1, v/v) mixture.
