A spontaneous dynamic kinetic resolution of 8-amino-5,6,7,8- tetrahydroquinoline 1 was observed in the presence of Candida antarctica Lipase B, in which a >60% yield of (R)-acetamide [(R)-2] was isolated from the racemic amine. The spontaneous formation of ketone 3, followed by a condensation/hydrolysis sequence with the remaining (S)-amine 1, via enamine 4, provides the necessary racemization pathway.
Enzymatic resolution of bicyclic 1-heteroarylamines using Candida antarctica lipase B

Candida antarctica lipase B has been used to kinetically resolve a structurally diverse series of bicyclic 1-heteroaryl primary amines by enantioselective acetylation. High yields of either enantiomer could be obtained with excellent enantioselectivity (90-99% ee), while the undesired enantiomer could, in some cases, be recycled by thermal racemization. The absolute stereochemistry of the products was confirmed by an X-ray crystal structure.
