Enzymatic Deracemization of (R,S)-Ibuprofen Ester via Lipase-catalyzed Membrane Reactor

Ibuprofen (isobutyl-propanoic-phenolic acid) is a chiral drug which essentially well-known for its analgesic, antipyretic and anti-inflammatory effects. In the present work, an enzymatic membrane reactor (EMR) has been developed for the production of optically pure (S)-ibuprofen acid. The EMR is equ...
