tert alert! A thiamine diphosphate (ThDP)‐dependent enzyme catalyzing the cross‐condensation of a keto acid with several activated and nonactivated ketones gives chiral tertiary alcohols, products that are otherwise difficult to obtain in an enantioenriched form. To enable comparison of aldehyde‐/ketone‐accepting enzymes and to guide site‐directed mutagenesis studies, we solved the crystal structure
(S)-Phenylacetylcarbinol [(S)-PAC] and its derivatives are valuable intermediates for the synthesis of various APIs (active pharmaceutical ingredients), however their selective synthesis is challenging. As no highly selective enzymes or chemical...
(S)-苯基乙酰基甲醇[[ S ] -PAC ]及其衍生物是合成各种API(活性药物成分)的有价值的中间体,但是它们的选择性合成具有挑战性。由于没有高度选择性的酶或化学物质...
