(Chemical Equation Presented) An esterase from Bacillus subtilis (BS2) allows the fast and selective removal of allyl, 2-chloroethyl, and 2,2,2-chloroethyl esters under mild conditions in high yields. In addition, BS2 easily hydrolyzes phenacyl esters, while the hydrolysis of sterically hindered diphenylmethyl esters is slow, requiring longer reaction time and higher enzyme/substrate ratio.
