Sterically hindered myo-inositol derivatives were assayed against different commercial lipases. It was found that dl-1,3,6-tri-O-benzyl-myo-inositol undergoes efficient kinetic resolutions mediated by Pseudomonas sp. lipases (PS-C, PS-IM) and CaLB (Novozym 435). Under the best conditions, the O-acylated l-enantiomorph was obtained in up to >99% ee with conversions of up to >49%. Differences in the immobilization support of the Pseudomonas sp. lipases had a marked effect on their resolution performance.
