Abstract

A limitation in studying the steric course of benzylpenicillinacylase (BPA)-catalyzed hydrolyses of N-(phenylacetyllamino derivatives is the low solubility in aqueous solution. By using the more soluble N-(p-aminophenylacetyl) derivatives, the hydrolysis of some chiral primary amines (with known absolute configuration) could be examined and priority relations between the substituents at the asymmetric carbon atoms established. ...
