A.Flavus Mediated Biotransformations for the Syntheses of Active A-oxyfunctionalized Compounds

1 Results Biotransformations are enzyme- and whole cell-catalysed conversions of non-natural substrates to products.They are important tools in organic synthesis,especially for the syntheses of chiral molecules,where the reactions catalysed may be asymmetric syntheses or the resolution of racemates.The main advantages associated with the use of single enantiomer compounds are increased specificity and the avoidance of adverse side effects[1].Whole cell reactions are advantegous over enzyme-catalyzed rea...
