• ) configuration at the C-6 carbon. By saponification under mild conditions, 24 was converted into carboxylic acid 25 which was implicated into a free-epimerising amidation procedure with HOBt [22] and the readily available O-protected tyrosine derivative 26. Finally, the TBS group of the amino ester moiety was

• common synthetic route involves the amidation of 2-aminobenzoic acid or its derivatives, i.e., 2-aminobenzonitrile, 2-aminobenzoates, and 2-arylnitrilium salts, followed by oxidative ring closure [10][11][12][13]. Other synthetic pathways include the cyclization of anthranilamides with aldehydes [14

• (triacyl glycerol hydrolases EC 3.1.1.3) catalyze hydrolysis, esterification, transesterification, thioesterification, amidation, epoxidation etc. [5][6][7][8][9][10]. The use of immobilized lipases is on the rise, as these work well with non-aqueous media [11]. Apart from the convenient handling, these
