Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
The chemo- and enantioselectivity of the Candida antarctica lipase B (CalB)-catalyzed acetylation reaction of ( R, S )-propranolol using vinyl acetate as acyl donor and toluene as organic solvent was studied. Because of the poor solubility of propranolol in toluene small quantities of methanol were added as cosolvent. The effects of the propranolol/vinyl acetate ratio, the enzyme purification procedure and the methanol concentration on the reaction were investigated. The reactions occurring in the system were quantitatively investigated using 1 H and 13 C NMR spectroscopy. The major reactions were the hydrolysis and alcoholysis of vinyl acetate, as a consequence of the presence of residual water and methanol in the reaction medium. Furthermore, the NMR analysis confirmed that O -acetyl-propranolol was formed exclusively. The reaction was also found to be enantioselective favoring the faster transformation of the R -propranolol. In addition to the experiments, molecular modeling was used to study the formation of the reactive Michaelis complexes between propranolol and acetylated CalB, using a combined molecular docking and molecular dynamics (MD) procedure. Only for the O -acetylation we found binding modes of the substrate leading to formation of the product, which explains the experimentally observed chemoselectivity of CalB.
