Product Information
(2S)-2-Methyl-3-phenylpropanoic acid is a chiral organic compound that can be catalysed to produce enantioenriched products. It has been shown to be an efficient catalyst for the ester hydrolysis reaction, with a rate constant of 10.8 x 10 M s. The enzyme lipase catalyzes this reaction by hydrolyzing ester bonds in (2S)-2-methyl-3-phenylpropanoic acid, producing a mixture of the enantiomers 2R-(+)-2-methyl-3-phenylpropanoic acid and 2S-(−)-2-methyl-3-phenylpropanoic acid. Lipases are proteins that specifically hydrolyze fats, which means they only work on one specific type of molecule. This is advantageous because it allows for higher stereoselectivity in the production of the desired product. Pseudomonas fluorescens produces lipases that are
