Chemoenzymatic synthesis of enantiopure 1,4-dihydropyridine derivatives
Chirality is important for the activity of many biologically active compounds, since differences in biological properties of stereoisomers occur frequently. The exact stereochemical composition of each new chiral compound as well as toxicological and pharmacological data for racemic and enantiomeric...
