Abstract
The present invention relates to a method of preparing optically active amines and chiral amines prepared thereby. The method includes reacting an amine compound, a metal catalyst, a biocatalyst including a lipase, and an acyl donor compound in an organic solvent to obtain a chiral amide compound, and then hydrolyzing the chiral amide compound to obtain a chiral amine.
