Full Description
The use of biocatalysts, employed either as isolated enzymes or as whole cells, creates a base of highly selective transformations for modern preparative organic chemistry. This textbook provides a basis for undergraduate and graduate courses in biocatalysis, as well as a condensed introduction to the field. After a basic introduction to the use of biocatalysts, principles of stereoselective transformations, kinetics, enzyme nomenclature and handling, the different types of reactions are explained according to the "reaction principle".
Contents
Common prejudices against enzymes; advantages and disadvantages of biocatalysts; enzyme properties and nomenclature; hydrolytic reactions; reduction reactions; oxidation reactions; formation of carbon-carbon bonds; addition and elimination reactions; glycosyl-transfer reactions; halogenation and dehalogenation reactions; enzymes in organic solvents; immobilization; modified and artificial enzymes; state of the art and outlook.
