Description
Summary:Candida antarctica lipase B (CAL-B) is avery effective catalyst for the production of aminesand amides using different enzymatic procedures.Simplicity of use, low cost, commercial availabilityand recycling possibility make this lipase an idealtool for the synthesis and resolution of a wide rangeof nitrogenated compounds that can be used for theproduction of pharmaceuticals and interesting manu-factures in the industrial sector. inancial support of this work by the Spanish Ministerio de Educación y Cultura (Project CTQ-2004-04185) and EuropeanUnion (EU-04-LSHB-2003-503017) is gratefully acknowl-edged.
