For the preparation of abzymes with glycolytic activity , the generation of an antibody that catalyzes the hydrolysis of acetal 1 represents a first step. The antibody (or abzyme) is obtained from immunization with piperidinium hapten 2. A key factor in promoting catalysis is probably the proper placement of the leaving group in 1 as axial substituent.
