Productivity of enzymatic catalysis in non-aqueous media: New developments

  • Chapter

Abstract

Enzymatic catalysis in non-aqueous solvents has gained considerable interest in recent years as an efficient approach to the synthesis of natural products, pharmaceuticals, fine chemicals and food ingredients (1–7). The high selectivity and mild reaction conditions associated with enzymatic transformations have made them very attractive for the synthesis of complex bioactive compounds, which are often difficult to obtain by standard chemical routes. Hence the region-and stereospecificity of enzymes and, in particular, the dependence of these characteristics on the reaction conditions and the reaction media employed have been actively investigated in the last few years (see other chapters of this book for an up-to-date review).
