Abstract

Household fluorescent light activates a diruthenium complex to generate catalytic species highly active for the racemization of secondary alcohols under ambient conditions. This catalyst system is applicable for the chemoenzymatic dynamic kinetic resolution of racemic alcohols to give optically pure acetates under mild conditions.
