Enzyme-catalyzed asymmetric deacylation for the preparation of lasofoxifene (CP-336156), a selective estrogen receptor modulator

Org Lett. 2000 Dec 14;2(25):4025-7. doi: 10.1021/ol006652+.

Abstract

[structure] selective estrogen receptor modulator (SERM), Lasofoxifene (CP-336156), was prepared by an enzyme-catalyzed asymmetric deacylation with high optical purity and excellent yield even though the hydrolytic site is remote from the chiral centers.
